A CHINESE CINNABAR LACQUER BOWL

拍品描述

Measuring 25 cm in both length and width alongside a height of 10 cm, this bulbous lacquer vessel has a total weight of 1380 grams. Its rounded, squat silhouette features a neatly recessed circular opening, with a sleek black lacquer finish lining the smooth interior. The entire exterior is densely carved from vivid cinnabar lacquer, showcasing overlapping blossoming flowers and intricately veined foliage that create rich three-dimensional textures across the curved surface. Sharp, refined carving details highlight meticulous craftsmanship built up through stacked lacquer coats. Bold in colour and densely ornamented, this piece is an eye-catching addition to distinguished holdings of traditional Chinese carved lacquer tableware.
