| Good mid 19th CE blue and white porcelain “lustral” water offering stemmed bowl, circa Daoguang to Tongzhi reigns (1821-1874), with two well executed dragons chasing a flaming pearl motif. Water symbolizes purity so this sort of bowl would be a common piece for a Buddhist altar ensemble. The bottom of the foot has been ground down and polished presumably to negate the effects of a chip on the footrim, noted in last enlargement. H: 12cm/4.6in and 11cm/4.2in | ||||||||||
