One other pair of bowls of the same shape, with the same rare type of glaze, and also with Kangxi marks, is illustrated in The Tsui Museum of Art; Chinese Ceramics IV; Qing Dynasty, Hong Kong, 1995, no. 13.
The glaze on the present and published bowls appears to be a refined version of the gradations of color seen on copper-red-glazed vessels of Kangxi date, that are often described as langyao, where the thicker, crackled red glaze thins to a pale celadon color, primarily at the rim, but also in other areas. This type of glaze is evident on several vessels, including three vases of various shape, three bowls, and a zhadou-shaped jar, illustrated in The Catalogue of the International Exhibition of Chinese Art, London, 1935-36, nos. 2298, 2299, 2301, 2303, 2305, 2307 and 2309; and on three vessels illustrated in A Special Exhibition of Qing Monochrome Glaze Porcelain, National Palace Museum, Taipei, 1981, nos. 4, 5 and 6, a vase, a brush pot and a censer, respectively.
