Yellow porcelain bowl painted with pink and blue peonies and green leaves on a dark background.

Bowl with Peonies

A deep-walled porcelain bowl on a low foot, its yellow ground painted in overglaze enamels with a large pink peony and clusters of blue peonies among green leaves. The bright palette and wide, open form show the decorative richness of the enamelled wares.

Look closer: A small green leaf and enamel petals wrap around the left edge of the bowl near the rim.
