About the Item
This blue and white porcelain jar was produced at a southern folk kiln (minyao) during the mid to late Ming dynasty. It features a well-balanced form with rounded shoulders, a short neck, and a low foot. The decoration depicts a phoenix flying westward among clouds, while a band of vertical lotus-petal motifs (lianbanwen) encircles the lower section.
The cobalt pigment exhibits a grayish-blue tone (huī qīngsè) typical of low-iron cobalt widely used in southern folk kilns of the period. Fired in a reducing atmosphere, the glaze shows a soft, natural diffusion of color beneath the surface.

Blue And White Yuan-style ‘Dragon’ Bottle Vase, Yuhuchunping, Early Qing dynasty
Located in seoul, KR
The vase is delicately potted featuring a pear-shaped body that rests on a slightly flared foot and extends upward into a trumpet-shaped neck. Its exterior showcases a dynamic, three-clawed dragon in stride amidst flames.
This piece reflects a similar style to Yuan dynasty Yuhuchunping dragon vases, while reinterpreting certain details, such as the sharp and simplified shape of the dragon's head, the distinctive straight design of its claws, and the intricate depiction of the dragon’s scales.
The sticker on the base indicates that the absolute age was determined through radiological mechanical appraisal using the quantum absolute dating method, with the results pointing to the early 18th century.
Period : Qing Dynasty(Presumably Kangxi or Yongzheng Period)
Type : Yuhuchunping
Medium : Blue and White glaze
Condition : Excellent(slight salt residue remains on the surface, and the glaze is worn primarily around the edges, such as mouth and base)
