A PAIR OF YELLOW-GROUND FAMILLE-ROSE BOWLS SEAL MARKS AND PERIOD OF DAOGUANG

the deep rounded sides rising from a short straight foot to an everted rim, brightly enamelled around the exterior with an undulating leafy composite floral scroll, all reserved on a rich lemon-yellow ground, the interior with the wufu ('five bats') in iron-red, the base inscribed in underglaze blue with a six-character reign mark

Sotheby's Hong Kong, 29th October 1991, lot 278.

There are some small exposed areas to the interior of one of the bowls, possibly to remove some kiln grits. The other bowl has some wear to the iron-red bats. Apart from some stained burst air bubbles, the overall condition of the pair is quite good.
