Persimmon-Orange Glazed Pear Vase
Located in Chicago, IL
The striking monochrome of this vase draws on a long Chinese tradition of ceramics glazed in a single, statement-making color. The gracefully curved form of this porcelain vase is enlivened by a vibrant orange glaze inspired by the persimmon, an auspicious symbol in Chinese art. The timeless form is known as a yuhuchunping or pear-shaped vase and is defined by a rounded body, narrow neck, and flared mouth originally used for pouring wine.
