Originally for cultivating goldfish, charmed pets that created good feng shui, this fish bowl is a stunning example of the art of blue-and-white porcelain. Perfected by the Chinese over centuries, this ceramic tradition exploits the rich blue of cobalt oxide for designs that contrast beautifully with the crisp white of the porcelain. The hand-painted scene presents an encounter between scholars and a gardener. Fanciful cloud formations, nature's garments that ruffle in the wind, showcase the artist’s keen eye for detail.
