Lot Essay

This delicate water pot is finely potted of an unusual shape with a sharp angular profile, which may have been influenced by a metal prototype. A very similar water pot from the Ingram Collection, possibly the same example as the current lot, was included in the Exhibition of Chinese Art, Palazzo Ducale, Venice, 1954, cat. 349f.
