A FAMILLE ROSE ‘BALSAM PEAR’ BOWL, HONGXIAN MARK, REPUBLIC PERIOD

China, c. 1915-1930. The porcelain is delicately potted, the deep rounded sides supported on a short foot and rising to a flared rim, finely decorated to the exterior and interior in bright enamels with leafy bamboo stalks and a balsam pear vine suspending ripe fruit and small yellow flowers, the ripe gourds bursting open to expose the seeds.

The recessed base with an iron-red four-character mark Hongxian nianzhi.

Provenance: From a private collection in Sussex, United Kingdom.
Condition: Excellent condition with minor wear and firing irregularities including pitting, dark spots, and small glaze recesses.

Weight: 61 g
Dimensions: Height 5.3 cm, Diameter 7.7 cm

Literature comparison:
The motif of the present lot, also known as ‘bitter melon’, is found on Imperial porcelain bowls of the 18th and 19th centuries, see for example a pair of bowls with underglaze-blue Yongzheng reign marks and of the period in the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, object numbers 2013.502.1 and 2013.502.2.

Expert’s note:
For an interesting discussion of porcelain produced during the short period from December 1915 to February 1916 when General Yuan Shikai adopted the reign title Hongxian in an attempt to restore the monarchy to China, see the article by Simon Kwan, 'Hongxian Porcelain and the Role of Wang Xiaotang', published in Orientations, October, 1991, pp. 65-70. In particular, the author notes that a batch of the very best Hongxian-marked porcelain wares was most likely indeed produced for Yuan Shikai.
