Tyler Loui


Title: Stem Cup
Work Type: Ceramics, Decorative Arts and Utilitarian Objects
Date: Ming period, mid- to late 15th century (probably Chenghua era, 1465-1487)
Location: China, Jiangxi Province

I chose this piece because I thought it was cool how the cup is skinny at the bottom and turns into more of a bowl shape at the top. Also the designs on the side of the bowl is pretty cool and i enjoy the mixture of Red, White, and Blue. The pattern makes it interesting and the design of the animal is really cool too. Overall, this piece just caught my eye.
