This antique Chinese bowl from 1800 is made of porcelain with a cobalt underglaze. The piece displays a traditional Chinese style with an off-white ceramic body decorated with hand-painted underglaze blue floral motifs, including stylised chrysanthemums and scrollwork patterns, alongside a raised foot ring. Visible signs of age and condition include several rim chips, two hairline cracks radiating from the rim, areas of glaze loss on both the interior and underside, pitting and blemishes, and firing flaws around the foot. The bowl measures 7.7 cm high, 14.7 cm wide, and 14.7 cm deep. It serves well in a home today as a decorative display on a sideboard top.

FAQs

Blue and white porcelain gained widespread prominent production during the Ming and Qing dynasties. Cobalt oxide pigment was painted onto unfired porcelain vessels before receiving a clear glaze and being fired at high temperatures.

These pieces were crafted from natural kaolin clay mixed with petuntse, producing a dense white ceramic body. Decorative patterns were applied using cobalt oxide pigment as an underglaze layer beneath a clear protective glaze.

Authentic pieces often exhibit minor variations in glaze thickness, evidence of hand-tooling on the unglazed foot ring, and variable cobalt saturation under the glaze. Natural age wear along rims, firing flaws, and slight iron spots are common indicators.

A porcelain bowl functions effectively as a decorative display object on a wooden sideboard, within a open bookcase, or at the centre of a dining table. The classic contrast of blue and white integrates into modern, traditional, or eclectic room designs.

Clean ceramic vessels gently using lukewarm water and mild soap with a soft microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive pads. Handle the object with both hands beneath the base rather than lifting it by the upper rim.
