AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
UV checked!
Blue and white porcelain cachepot / planter
China, Qing Dynasty, Kangxi
18th century
Height: 18 cm
Diameter: 21 cm
Vase of flared form with a swollen body and a slightly constricted neck, resting on a straight foot. The porcelain is decorated in cobalt blue underglaze.
The body is adorned with a continuous pattern of plum blossoms (méihua) left in white on a blue crackle-glaze background, the emblematic motif of porcelains called "prunus on ice". This theme symbolizes renewal and winter resilience.
The decoration is structured by shoulder friezes, a Greek-type geometric band (leiwen) at the collar, stylized scrolls, and at the bottom, a frieze of lanceolate petals recalling lotus leaves. The interior features a pale uniform celadon glaze. The background is unmarked.
Condition :
Stars on the body and at the base confirmed under UV.
Light nicks and chips at the collar.
No major structural damage, overall stability is good.
Provenance: Portuguese Collection - Kanaka The Collection
Shipping: Shipped with UPS / CTT with insurance and tracking
