A hand-painted Canton export porcelain bowl featuring the timeless blue and white “willow pattern” scene—complete with pagodas, bridges, trees, and boats in fluid, expressive brushwork. Likely dating to the mid- to late 19th century, this bowl was produced for export and shows classic signs of the era: an unglazed foot rim, slightly irregular hand-thrown shape, and no maker’s mark on the underside.
Its generous 6.75” diameter makes it versatile for both display and service, perfect for layering into a curated blue-and-white collection or adding historic character to open shelving. Note the rim imperfection is original to its production, as indicated with the glaze fully covering it.
