Very Fine Chinese Copper-Red 'Myth Beast' Water Pot

拍品描述

Underglaze red water pot of classic beehive form, exquisitely painted with three mythical lions in varied poses of playful animation, their eyes picked out in underglaze blue. The copper-red pigment exhibits a characteristically soft and mottled tone against a ground of translucent white glaze that extends to the small, circular mouth. Each creature is meticulously rendered with calligraphic brushwork, showcasing expressive countenances and bushy manes that wrap around the vessel's gently sloping shoulders, Kangxi mark. D: 3 in, 7.5 cm 品相： Good
