Lot details

China, 1644-1912. Neatly painted in underglaze blue with a ruyi-shaped bat suspending a double-gourd above a longevity peach between peony sprays, above stiff-leaf and lappet borders and below ruyi-head and wave borders. The neck with flowerheads and stylized scrolling vines below a floral border, all against a crisp lemon-yellow ground.

Provenance: Belgian private collection.
Condition: Old wear, firing irregularities, inherent and dense crackling to yellow glaze, a chip to the rim with an old fill and associated short hairline, a small chip to the exterior rim and another to one of the bat handles. Overall presenting well, commensurate with age.

Weight: 3,680 g
Dimensions: Height 40.6 cm

Thickly potted, the massive ovoid body rising from a splayed foot to a rounded shoulder, applied with two bats suspending mock ring-handles, with a waisted neck and an everted rim. The inside and the recessed circular base are glazed white, the unglazed foot rim revealing the creamy-white ware.
