A FINE AND RARE RED-GLAZED BIRD FEEDER
MING DYNASTY, 15TH CENTURY
The vessel is delicately potted with a flat base and straight sides, applied with a small loop
for attachment, covered on the exterior with a crackled glaze of raspberry-red tone which
thins to white along the mouth, extending slightly to the inner rim, the interior with a
clear crackled glaze with a pale bluish-white tinge. The base is unglazed, revealing the fine
white body.
