AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Rare 14th/15th Century Chinese Longquan Celadon Jarlet.

A classic example of Yuan to Early Ming Dynasty (c. 1300–1450) Longquan stoneware. This globular jarlet features a lustrous, thick sea-green celadon glaze, characteristic of the renowned kilns of Zhejiang province. Originally used for medicinal oils, perfumes, or as a refined scholar’s desk object, this piece embodies the timeless elegance of Chinese monochrome ceramics.

Form: A well-proportioned, compressed globular body with a short tapered neck and a wide, inviting mouth.

Glaze: The glaze displays a soft, waxy luster with natural pooling near the foot, showcasing the "tears" often sought after by collectors of period celadon.

The Base: Features the distinctive unglazed foot ring, which has oxidized to a warm, brick-red "burnt orange" during the high-heat kiln firing—a hallmark of authentic antique Longquan ware.

Condition Report
Presented in good antique condition, commensurate with approximately 600 years of age.

Patina: Features a beautiful network of darkened stress cracks and natural crazing, providing an authentic "earth-aged" character.

Integrity: A small, professional restoration chip at the base and a superficial chip on the underside. A tiny, honest flea-bite chip at the rim. These minor imperfections do not detract from the vessel's structural stability or display appeal.


Diameter: 8 cm
Height: 6.5 cm

Origin: China (Longquan Kilns)

Period: Yuan / Early Ming Dynasty

Same model and same size sold on Sotheby's.(December 2024 - Hongkong. Lot: 5715)
