Collection Appreciation
This is a rare Douli bowl from the Yongzheng Imperial Kiln of the Qing Dynasty, featuring an elegant and distinctive shape with a flared rim, gently tapering sides, and a compact circular foot. Its slender, graceful lines embody the minimalist and refined aesthetic characteristic of the Yongzheng era. The interior and exterior are adorned with a vibrant overglaze polychrome design of nine peaches symbolizing longevity and five bats representing the five blessings. Twisted ancient trees wind gracefully around plump, ripe peaches rendered in delicate pink-to-white gradients, while vivid green leaves and red bats flutter among the branches, conveying auspicious wishes for enduring health and prosperity. The porcelain body is thin as a cicada's wing, with a hard, fine, and dense white texture covered by a lustrous, warm glaze. The polychrome colors are subtle and sophisticated, applied with masterful blending techniques and meticulous brushwork, creating a balanced composition. The base features a peach-shaped cartouche inscribed with "Yongzheng Nian Zhi" (Made in the Reign of Yongzheng) in neat, standard calligraphy. This piece is in excellent condition, adhering strictly to imperial standards in its form, decoration, and glaze. It combines high artistic value with profound cultural symbolism, making it a premier example of Qing Dynasty palace art and an exceptional collectible.
