Celadon Bowl with Incised Lotus Patterns, Song Dynasty

About the Item

Beneath the soft grayish-green glaze, incised lotus design emerges. The surface is adorned with flowing lines depicting lotus flowers and leaves, rendered in a refined carving technique that imparts both simplicity and vitality. These stylized natural motifs exemplify the aesthetics of the Song dynasty. The glaze is thin and translucent, applied evenly over the surface. Traces of glaze runs and fine crazing contribute to the aged charm of the piece.

Cizhou Lotus Carved Jar, Song-Yuan dynasty
Located in seoul, KR
This jar features a carved design, which is typical of Cizhou ware. It has a creamy white and brown color scheme, and the prominent decoration of lotus flower, which is a common motif in Chinese art and culture, symbolizing purity and enlightenment. The carving technique involves coating the vessel with a layer of white slip (liquid clay), then carving away parts of it to create the design, revealing the darker clay body beneath. This technique allows for a strong contrast between the background and the carved motif.
