Description

This bottle has a curled mouth, a long neck, sloping shoulders, and a round belly gradually converging into a circular foot. The vessel is tall and straight, graceful and handsome, showcasing the charm of the Yongzheng Dynasty. The outer wall is decorated with banana leaf patterns from the neck down, red ganoderma lucidum patterns in the tangled blue and white curly grass glaze, and blue and white Ruyi cloud shoulder. The abdomen is painted with tangled branches and lotus patterns, with blue and white outlining the branches and leaves, and underglaze red depicting the flowers. The lotus flowers are large and full, with the petals opening layer by layer, revealing the flower center, soft and delicate. The lotus leaves stretch and wrap around the flowers, and the flowers and branches are mixed in two colors, which is quite complementary. The bottom end is decorated with a blue and white lotus petal pattern, with a circle of upward lotus petal patterns. It is a masterpiece of underglaze red in the blue and white porcelain of the Yongzheng official kiln.
