AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Large Longquan celadon-glazed ceramic bowl from the Song dynasty, adorned with a lotus-petal motif. The slightly rounded sides rest on a short tapered foot. The exterior features elegant interlaced lotus petals, carved and coated with a rich celadon glaze.
This bowl dates to the late Northern Song to early Southern Song dynasty.
Its glaze is yellow and finely crazed, layered, and highly beautiful. In places, the glaze is slightly darker due to infiltration of earth and impurities.
The bowl is fairly large, with a perfectly rounded rim and a regular form.
The lotus petals, spaced and broad, are probably inspired by the northern kilns’ style of the period.
The exposed clay at the base, characteristic of this era, further highlights its unique character.
China, Song dynasty (960-1279).
Diameter 16.3 cm - Height 6.2 cm
Perfect condition, the body is completely intact, with no cracks or restorations
