China, 1700–20 Rijksmuseum Amsterdam, inv. no. AK-NM 6360 D. rim 15 cm, H. 11.5 cm Bequest of the widow of J.T. Royer to King William I, 1814. Royal Cabinet of Curiosities, transferred to the Rijksmuseum in 1883. Bowl on a footring, the slightly domed cover with a knob. The two handles shaped as dragons’ heads. Covered with underglaze powder blue with a decoration of flowering plants in gold. On the body and cover two large, fan-shaped panels in reserve filled with 106 river scenes in familie verte enamels. The museum has another identical piece. Covered bowls with this type of decoration are rare. They may have been part of a set and were probably used as tureens at the dinner table. Reichel illustrates a comparable piece in light brown from the Dresden Collection, inventoried in 1721. Publ.: Jörg & Van Campen 1997, cat. 157 Ref.: Reichel 1990, no. 75

Around the shoulder a diaper pattern with reserves filled with some of the ‘hundred 107 antiquities’, on the neck flower sprays. On either side a large vertical panel with indented corners, each decorated in famille verte enamels with a Chinese lady on a terrace beside rocks and flowering plants, one holding a flower sprig, the other a fan and a sprig. This vase has a traditional and well-known shape, but the powder blue variety with a familie verte decoration is more rare.
