Porcelain Bowl With Reticulated Wall Called "linglong" - China 17th Chongzhen Period
A porcelain bowl with a reticulated wall decorated with five medallions in which pagodas, palaces and landscapes appear in white and blue under cover. The medallions are surrounded by two friezes. This type of openwork porcelain is better known under the name "Linglong" or Devil's Work, a technique used from the beginning of the Ming Dynasty to the present day. This bowl is very characteristic of "Linglong Ware", and it exists in multiple versions.
China 17th Century
Chongzhen Period (1627-1644)
Height: 5cm
Diameter: 9.1cm
Perfect condition.
For an identical bowl, it is possible to cite multiple sources, whether from auctions, inventories, but also works ( available on request), however the one that makes the most sense would be that of the catalog listing the pieces contained in the Hatcher Cargo (The Hatcher Porcelain Cargoes, The Complete Record, Colin Sheaf and Richard Kilburn, p.44). Indeed, although it is impossible to certify that this bowl comes from the Hatcher Cargo, most of these models nevertheless come from it. The high concentration of porcelain from the Ming Dynasty and more particularly 17th century pieces found in this cargo ship (around 25,000) can probably explain why a large part of the Linglong bowls on the market, for example, are described as coming from the Hatcher Cargo.
