Item details

This is a Xuande-period blue-and-polychrome display dish decorated with dragons and sea motifs. It has a wide, flared mouth and a shallow, gently curved body. Dragons amid waves adorn the interior, while scrolling floral and foliate motifs encircle the exterior. Blue outlines are combined with vivid red, yellow, and green enamels, and a blue key-fret border runs along the rim; the densely arranged decoration conveys a strong sense of movement. (Height 6.3 cm, diameter 41 cm)
