Lot Essay

The elegant pear-shaped body tapers to a tall, slender neck rising to a slightly flared mouth, the base rounded into a short ring foot, covered overall with a clear, soft moon-white glaze.

Compare with a very similar vase from Dr. and Mrs. Marvin L. Gordon, illustrated in J. J. Lally, Chinese Ceramics and Works of Art: The Collection of Dr. and Mrs. Marvin L. Gordon, New York, 2009, no.14; and another moon-white glazed one published in Song Ceramics from the Kwan Collection, Hong Kong Museum of Art, 1994, pp.220-221, no.92; and one covered in white glaze, in the Idemitsu Museum, published in Chinese Ceramics in the Idemitsu Collection, Tokyo, 1987, pl.84.
