Lot Essay

The glaze of this washer is silken to the touch and is of the most sought after even, bluish-green celadon tone often referred to by the Japanese term 'kinuta'. Exquisite glazes with such refined texture and color were rarely achieved outside of the imperial Ru and Guan kilns. The glaze of the present lot may be compared with the slightly smaller Longquan kinuta washer (14.3 cm. diam.) sold at Christie's New York, 22 March 2019, lot 1742.
