A CHINESE FAMILLE ROSE TIBETAN-STYLE ( PENBA HU) EWER, 19TH-20TH CENTURY

A Chinese porcelain teapot, the globular body rising from a high spreading foot ring, surmounted by an elaborately knopped neck below a thick disc-shaped mouth curving inwards towards a narrow opening, the applied s-shaped spout issuing from the gaping jaws of a moulded makara head, all painted with the bajixiang (Eight Buddhist Emblems) in famille rose, interspersed by leafy lotus flowers and scrolling and intertwining tendrils, framed by lotus lappets, ruyi-head motifs and segmented flower head motifs, the interior of the mouth and the base turquoise enamelled, stopping to reveal a Chinese iron-red Daoguang seal mark. Height 19.8 cm.
