[Blue and white bamboo and stone bowl]
Blue and white bamboo and stone bowl, Ming Yongle, height 7.1 cm, caliber 16.4 cm, foot diameter 5.8 cm
The bowl is skimmed, the belly is deep, and the feet are circled. The interior light is plain without grain decoration. The outer wall is decorated with blue and white bamboos, strange stones and flowers and grass patterns. The outer wall of the circle foot is painted with echo lines. The circle foot is painted with blue and white glaze
This bowl has a beautiful shape, a thin body, and a glossy glaze. Its shape is derived from the light azure glaze bowl of Ru kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty. The picture on the bowl is left blank in a large area, giving people a fresh and elegant visual feeling, completely free from the influence of the typical style of the red and white porcelain decoration in the Hongwu period of the Yuan and Ming dynasties, and can be regarded as the landmark work of creating a new style of porcelain decoration in the Yongle era
