A LONGQUAN CELADON CARVED ‘LOTUS PETAL’ BOWL, SOUTHERN SONG DYNASTY
南宋龍泉青釉蓮紋碗
Sold for €1,170
including Buyer's Premium
Please note this Lot is to be sold at No Reserve. 本拍品不設底價
China, 13th century. Heavily potted with deep rounded sides supported on a short spreading foot. Covered overall with a thick olive-green glaze pooling uniformly around the body and stopping unevenly at the foot, the mostly unglazed base revealing the dark-brown ware partly burnt to orange in the firing. The exterior of the bowl with a finely incised and distinct lotus petal design.
Provenance: Jung’s, Inc., Wilmington, Delaware, USA, 1990s. A private collector in Toronto, Canada, acquired from the above. A copy of an old business card and two old gallery labels, confirming the dating above, accompany this lot. Jung’s, Inc. was an art and antiques dealership founded by Shee Lup Jung (1922-2015). Mr. Jung received his PhD in Chemistry from the University of Pennsylvania in 1951, when he was employed as a research chemist for DuPont. Inspired by his wife Mary’s passion for the arts, Mr. Jung slowly and methodically studied ancient glazes and ceramics, including their chemical and mineral aspects, acquiring a multitude of study pieces for the family’s collection. In 1975, he started Jung’s, Inc. in a historic location in central Wilmington, Delaware, as a museum-like gallery with an impressive selection of ceramics, open by appointment only and selling mostly to knowledgeable and scholarly collectors much like Jung himself.
Condition: Very good condition with expected old wear and firing irregularities, including glaze recesses, some of which show the ware burnt to orange in the firing, and pitting, a tiny chip to the foot, intentional crackling.
Weight: 574 g

來源：美國特拉華州威爾明頓Jung藝廊，1995年代；一個加拿大多倫多私人收藏家購於上述藝廊，在同一家族保存至今。隨附一張舊名片的副本和兩個舊畫廊標籤複印件。Jung藝廊是由Shee Lup Jung（1922-2015）成立的藝術古董店。Jung先生於 1951 年獲得賓夕法尼亞大學化學博士學位，當時他受聘為杜邦公司化學研究員。受妻子 Mary 對藝術的熱情啟發，Jung 先生開始緩慢但系統地研究古代釉料和陶瓷，包括它們的化學和礦物結構，為家族收藏提供大量的研究藏品。1975 年，他在特拉華州威爾明頓市中心的一個歷史悠久的地方成立了 Jung藝廊，這是一家博物館式的藝廊，收藏了令人印象深刻的陶瓷，只接受預約參觀，主要出售給與 Jung 本人一樣的知識淵博和學術收藏家。
