Large Chinese Dingyao Carved White Glazed Lotus Bowl. The deeply rounded sides resting on a slightly recessed foot, the interior freely carved with a lotus spray issuing blossoms and curled leaves, applied overall with a uniform ivory-colored glaze with characteristic tear-drops on the exterior, the rim left unglazed revealing the white buff body. {Diameter: 9 inches (23 cm)}.Property from a San Francisco Collection.
