This bowl, with its subtle decoration covered in a beautiful celadon glaze, belongs to a special ꧅group of celadon-glazed bowls, all of this form and size, but with varying moulded design band decoration, made on the order of the Qing 🐈court catering to the emperor's sophisticated taste and fondness for elegant monochrome wares.
It is unusual to find a Yongzheng bowl of this type carved with the Eight Buddhist Emblems (bajixiang). Compare a closely related example decorated with an interlaced peony scroll, ꦑsold in these rooms, 25th November 1981, lot 322; another sold in our London rooms, 16th Ma💮y 2012, lot 168.
