A matching pair of Blue and red glaze bowls with a fruit and stem design in the center. The fruits are lychees with their leaves on a stem with a underglazed copper-red ruyi midway down the stem. The interior cavetto and walls feature three floral sprays of transforming into Lingzhi. The exterior wall decoration consists of five peaches, six lychees and five pomegranates with three bursting their skins. Considering the symbolism of peaches and Lingzhi for longevity and pomegranates and lychees for many sons, this gift would have been an engagement or anniversary gift.
