AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Description
A pleasingly proportioned brush washer of shallow, rounded form with gently thickened rim and short, neatly finished foot. The interior is centred on a medallion vividly painted with a phoenix in flight alongside a companion bird, rockwork and blossoming peony — a motif symbolising prosperity and harmonious union — all enclosed within double blue line borders. The exterior is freely decorated with winding flowering branches and fluttering insects, rendered in rich, deep cobalt-blue with fluid, assured brushwork characteristic of the period. A charming and practical scholar’s studio object.

Dimensions:
Rim diameter: approx. 14 cm

Condition
Frits, minor nicks and glaze pops along the rim consistent with age and handling;
No cracks, hairlines, chips or restoration observed elsewhere;
Glaze and painting remain clear and well-defined; structurally intact.
