Rare Song Dynasty Qingbai Ewer
This rare Song Dynasty ewer possesses an irresistible natural charm that exudes simplicity and grace in every part. It has an uncluttered base with a small foot that gives rise to a firm, sturdy body, devoid of any more decoration than a simple protruding medallion. Its shoulders taper upwards, from which an attractive spout emerges with irregularities typical of the craftsman’s hand, with a curled handle at the opposite end. The neck grows firm to a slightly flared edge; devoid of paintings or any other sumptuous decoration. It is a rustic piece, which stands out for its simplicity and the intrinsic beauty of its shape; for its light brownish color like clay that speaks of roots strongly reinforced by the craftsman’s work; for its small irregularities that only give it a unique charm typical of ancient Song dynasty porcelain craftsmanship.
