Description
Dimensions: Height: 45 cm, Diam.: 13.5 cm
Chinese Ming Dynasty Blue & white Carriage Motif Porcelain Elephant Leg Vase. The porcelain potted in long cylindrical vase, tall dan large body, short neck with flaring found mouth rim, raised on round flat foot base rim. Hand painted ornamentations are rendered in clean white color which contrast against blue fine color, depicted of group carriage on the field beside dense tree, rocky rock, Lishui rivers, and Chinese calligraphy poems letters. A characteristic heaped and piled effect, the under glaze greyish-blue concentrates in certain areas, bubbling through the surface of the glaze and turning a deep blue-black. This inadvertently gave texture, energy, and shading to the design.
The underside unglazed, revealed the pale-creme ground revealed and dark greyish brown spotted firing marks and edge-cut foot rim.
