The shape of this bowl is extremely rare for Longquan celadon wares. The lacquer lid suggests that this bowl served as a water container in the Japanese tea ceremony.
A number of bowls of similar form carved with varying combinations of flowers were included in the National Palace Museum, Taipei exhibition Green-Longquan Celadon of the Ming Dynasty, Taipei, 2009, nos. 16 - 22. Compare also the undecorated bowl closest in form to the present example included in the same exhibition, no. 14.
The form and similarities in the decoration can also be seen in blue and white bowls of the Yongle period. Compare a Yongle period blue and white basin with peony scroll to well and detached fruiting branches to the exterior from the Walter Hochstadter Collection sold at Christie's New York, 18 March 2009, lot 518.
