Bowl 12th-13th century

This 12th-13th century, anonymous, celadon glazed bowl exemplifies the understated elegance of Chinese ceramics. The bowl, crafted in stoneware, features a delicate, pale green glaze with subtle variations in color. Its simple form and understated ornamentation are indicative of the Song Dynasty's preference for minimalist aesthetics. The bowl, now housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, is a testament to the enduring legacy of Chinese ceramic craftsmanship.
