Transport yourself to the elegance of China's Song and Yuan dynasties with this small Longquan celadon ewer, a timeless testament to over 800 years of artistic heritage. Renowned for its serene green glaze and refined craftsmanship, this piece is a wonderful example of the Longquan kilns’ mastery.


A Glimpse of Ancient Craftsmanship

This petite ewer boasts a classic design:

  • Rounded body with a gracefully upward spout and arched handle, perfectly balanced for both function and beauty.
  • The base is glazed with the signature celadon hue, while the unglazed foot ring highlights the traditional firing process.
  • Its lush green glaze captures the essence of Longquan celadon, celebrated for its soothing tones that symbolise harmony and elegance.
  • Weight: 272 g

Condition:

  • Well-preserved for its age, with no cracks.
  • Subtle restoration to the handle and minor wear to the spout—testament to its long journey through time.
  • The glaze remains rich, vibrant, and beautifully intact.

Why This Ewer Stands Out:

  • Historical Significance: A genuine piece from the celebrated Song or Yuan Dynasty, a golden age of Chinese ceramics.
  • Elegant Simplicity: The classic celadon green embodies the refinement and serenity prized in Chinese art.
  • Collector's Treasure: Compact yet rich in character, this ewer is ideal for display or as a cherished addition to a fine ceramics collection.

Celebrate the legacy of Longquan celadon with this charming ewer, a piece that connects the past with the present in a way few artefacts can.
