ANTIQUE #SA1183787

Large Shiwan Yellow-glazed Hotei Figure Vase, Late 19th Century

£300    $401    €351
A substantial late-19th-century Shiwan figure-vase formed as an overfilled treasure sack with a tall, tightly drawn neck. Set into a recessed niche at the front sits the laughing Hotei (Budai), god of abundance, his rounded form and relaxed posture rendered with assured modelling. The thick yellow lead glaze has developed an even antique craquelure with naturally darkened lines, characteristic of genuine period Shiwan production. The unglazed base shows expected firing marks.
