Subject:Antique Chinese Famille Rose (?) bowl
Posted By: Guy Wed, Jan 28, 2015 IP: 84.197.53.237

This Chinese bowl seems to be very old. Colors are green, yellow , brick red, white and black (sides) and a motif of what appear to be Buddhistic (?) figures and red coral (side) on the side. H 10 cm - W 17 cm and base 6 cm. Not signed.

I look forward to hear some expert opninions. Thanks in advance.

Guy.

This bowl was made in China for the Thai market in a "Bencharong" (5 colors) pattern featuring "Teppanom" (Angels) and "Norasingh" (Half-lion, half-human protective spirits), both of which figure into Thai Buddhist art. I don't collect Thai ceramics but saw enough when I used to work there to think this piece probably dates to the first quarter of the 19th century or earlier.

Best regards,

Bill H.

Thanks Wil, Mike and Didier. I yield to your more studied opinions regarding this bowl being made in Thailand and not in China. The Thai imported some Bencharong wares from China but also have a long history of making ceramics of their own.

Best regards,

Bill H.

Your bowl is not chinese.
You have a bencharong bowl from Thailand,with thai disigned of Thepphanom and Norasingha.The bowl i think is 18 century.

Your bowl is neither Chinese or Japanese, but of Thai (Thailand) origin. Probably of early Ratanakosin Period (mid 1800).
