Yuan dynasty stoneware bowl

Offered by: Bloomberry

Description
A Yuan dynasty (1279-1368 CE) Cizhou russet-striped black glazed deep stoneware bowl.

The deep, rounded sides rising to a slightly everted rim, the interior covered in a black glaze decorated with two rows of closely spaced vertical russet stripes, while black glaze on the exterior falls in an irregular line atop a thin russet-brown wash which ends above the foot to expose the fine buff ware.

Bowls of this type have been excavated from the Guantai kiln site in Cixian, Hebei province and are dated to the early to mid-14th century.
