Description

A RARE LONGQUAN CELADON MELON-FORM TEAPOT, SOUTHERN SONG-YUAN DYNASTY
This lot is from a single owner collection and is therefore offered without reserve

China, 12th-14th century. The lobed sides reminiscent of a gourd, set with a handle and curved spout, the upper rim flattened, and supported on a short foot. The body covered overall in an olive-green colored glaze suffused with crackles. The foot rim left unglazed, revealing the buff ware slightly burnt to orange.

Provenance: The Collection of Sam and Myrna Myers, Paris, France. Acquired between circa 1965-2012.
Condition: Very good condition with minor wear, traces of use, and firing irregularities, a small area of glaze flaking to the upper rim.

Weight: 528 g
Dimensions: Height 11.1 cm

The monochrome celadon color and elegant shape of the present piece follows the aesthetic tastes of Chinese Song dynasty ceramics. These types of Longquan celadon wares were also well liked by Koreans in the tenth century and absorbed by Goryeo potters to be manufactured and presented to the royal court. Chinese envoy Xu Jin (1091-1153) praised the quality of Goryeo celadon and their resemblance to famous wares in China, evidence of the cultural exchanges between the two countries. While early Goryeo examples have a conscious emulation of certain stylistic features of Chinese wares, later pieces were more articulating the native tastes. See, for example, a celadon-glazed melon-shaped ewer dated 11th-12th century, in the Spencer Museum of Art, accession number 1928.0633.a,b. Note the slight differences in the form and ware, with the current lot displaying sharper angles and the body burnt to orange.

Literature comparison:
Compare a closely related Longquan celadon glazed melon-shaped teapot, dated to the Southern Song dynasty, 11 cm tall, in the Shanghai Museum.
