This dish, or shallow bowl, was made during the Southern Song Dynasty (AD 1127 – 1279). It has a moulded decoration featuring, in its centre, two fish swimming amongst waves. The two fish are an emblem of harmony and a happy marriage. The bowl is coated in a greenish Qingbai type of glaze. The rim remains unglazed, allowing the bowl to be placed in a firing ring in the kiln as part of a stack of similar bowls.
Diameter 14 cm. It is in fine condition and has no restoration or repair.
This dish is from the Lammers Collection (see images for details) that was accumulated during the 1960s and 1970s.
