Description
Round hand thrown porcelain ginger jar with small mouth lip, and decorated with two birds standing on rocks facing each other. Surrounding the birds are peonies, and pomegranates. A tree spreads its branches over the birds. The back is painted with two butterflies. A floral band decorates the collar under the mouth.
A nice dark cobalt, which varies in depth to give contrast, is used for the decoration. The foot ring is unglazed but the base is glazed. The interior and exterior is glazed with a thick ivory-colored glaze which has a nice thick, smooth, polished feel. The glaze is well-controlled, stopping above the foot. You can see lines of the potter’s wheel under the glaze.
The base has the word CHINA painted in cobalt blue.
