A MUGHAL-STYLE MOTTLED CELADON JADE BOWL QING DYNASTY

with deep rounded sides, the exterior carved with clusters of stylized scrolling foliage above a band of formal stylized leaves, supported on a shallow foot finely carved as a four-petal flower radiating leaves that furl under to form the foot ring, the opposing handles carved as leafy floral sprays suspending loose rings, the rim and sides displaying further floral sprays suspending loose rings, the interior centered with a blossom with three rows of petals, the stone of a pale celadon color with some black pinprick striations

One side of the flower in one of the handles has been polished down and there are some minor nicks along the edges.
