Lot details

China, 1662-1722, circa 1680. Finely painted in underglaze blue and enamels in shades of green, red, yellow, and aubergine to the upper pear-shaped section with three boys at play and to the lower section with a palace garden scene showing an official with attendants and scholars, further with palm trees and lingbi stones. The recessed base with a lingzhi fungus mark within a double circle.

Provenance: From a noted private collection in Texas, USA.
Condition: Excellent condition with only minor wear to enamels, some shallow surface scratches here and there, and few firing irregularities.

Weight: 957.0 g
Dimensions: Height 26.5 cm

Expert’s note: During the early Qing dynasty, up until the 1680s, conditions were unsettled in China and the making of Imperial wares as well as the use of reign marks on porcelain was restricted in various ways. During this period, different types of other marks came into use, including lingzhi fungus marks and double circles.

Auction result comparison: Compare a related doucai dish, also dated to the Kangxi period and with a double circle mark, but of larger size and depicting a different subject, at Christie’s New York in An Era of Inspiration: 17th-Century Chinese Porcelains from the Collection of Julia and John Curtis on 16 March 2015, lot 3591, sold for USD 131,000.
