About the Item

A darling small Chinese celadon glazed kendi, or pouring vessel, mid Qing Dynasty, 18th century, China, for the Southeast Asian market. The diminutive kendi of typical form, with a globular body, short neck, flanged mouth and large, voluptuous mammary spout. The body and spout incised with a series vertical lines wrapping around the body and spout. The shoulder decorated with an incised scrolling floral design. The kendi glazed all over in a pleasing light celadon glaze. The glaze darkening and pooling beautifully in the recessed and incised areas, creating a nice contrasting effect. The celadon glaze with an alluring crackle just under the surface. The kendi, or pouring vessel, though ubiquitous in Southeast Asia, is one of the more unusual vessel forms. While they are made in various materials, and come in various sizes, the basic components are the same, including a globular body, narrow neck with an everted or flanged mouth, and a "mammary" spout, so named due to its resemblance to the female breast. Kendi are used in both daily and ritual life as both pouring and drinking vessels.
