Lot details China, 960-1234. The compressed body supported on three short cabriole legs and rising to a waisted neck and a broad, everted, lipped rim. Covered overall with a finely crackled, pale milky-blue glaze that thins to a mushroom tone at the edges of the legs and the mouth rim, with faint streaks of lavender and small areas of malachite-green color, the tips of the legs left unglazed. Note the sturdy, almost massive pottery, which is remarkable on such a small vessel. Provenance: From a private collection in New York, USA. Condition: Very good condition with some old wear and firing flaws, traces of use. The distinct markings on the interior are possibly spur marks. Areas of intentional glaze crackling.
