A Water Coupe for the Scholar’s Table.
A CHINESE WATER COUPE FOR THE SCHOLAR’S TABLE.

The squat basin covered with a thick blue-green glaze, heavily crackled. The glaze is so highly suffused with bubbles that it appears almost opaque. There is evidence of years of use though nothing detracts from the eye; it has a nice lustrous appearance from years of handling. The porcelain is dense and smooth and this would suggest an 18th century date.

2.1/16 inches (5.3 cm) high. Perfect condition with no chips, cracks or restoration.

If you would like to see the photographs in a larger format or file size, which is with less compression, or you would like pictures of a particular detail please let me know.

I am based in the United Kingdom so charges made to credit cards are in GBP ( British Pounds ) and your credit card issuer automatically converts the charge to the currency of your country. Payment may also be made by direct bank transfer in GBP. I am sorry but I cannot accept a cash transfer payment by Western Union as I don’t have an office nearby.
