    Description

    A collector's bowl made by free, expressive hand-forming that imitates the curves of peony petals. The piece is covered with a dense glossy glaze of a deep turquoise-emerald tone with a contrasting brownish-ochre edge along the asymmetric, wavy rim. Its elongated silhouette, with graceful tapering walls, allows the bowl to be used as a self-contained interior art object or as a chahe tea accessory (a vessel for presenting the dry tea leaf).

    Marks

    A round impressed maker's mark is present on the unglazed base.
