AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Three splendid Swatow teacups which were made in China during the late Ming dynasty (16th-17th centuries). They are handmade earthenware with a rough, gray-white glaze and are decorated with stylized leaves in iron oxide (black/gray). This type of earthenware was produced on a large scale in Fujian province for export to Southeast Asia and Europe. Although originally intended as vessels for tea or food, these bowls are today collected as works of art.

Dimensions: 5.1x12.5x12.5 cm and 5.7x12.7x12.7 cm and 5.5x13.6x13.6 cm
Weight: 275 gr and 245 gr and 330 gr

Here is also a truly beautiful Celadon plate, a type of ceramic known for its characteristic greenish or blue-green glaze, often associated with Chinese porcelain. The plate has the typical jade-green glaze that is achieved by firing an iron-rich glaze in a reducing atmosphere. Celadon wares are highly sought after and date back to the first century AD, with flourishing periods during the Song and Ming dynasties. This plate is made during the Daoguang (Tau-Kwang) period.

Dimensions: 2.8x18x18 cm
Weight: 355 gr
