The gently incurving sides are finely carved to depict billowing clouds of ruyi form rising in columns, covered overall with a pale even white glaze of lustrous tone.
Water pots of this type are more commonly found covered with a celadon glaze. White-glazed examples like the current lot are far rarer. A similar Kangxi white-glazed water pot is found in the Shanghai Museum, recorded in Zhongguo Taoci Quanji,vol. 14, Shanghai, 2000, no.127. Compare also to a white-glazed water pot from the collection of Mr. Quincy Chuang, illustrated in An Anthology of Chinese Ceramics, Hong Kong, 1980, p.164, no.121. For celadon-glazed examples, see one in the Palace Museum, Beijing, illustrated in Qing Porcelain of Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong Periods from the Palace Museum Collection, Hong Kong, 1989, no.130; and one formerly in the collection of Diana D. Ashcroft, sold at Christie’s Hong Kong, 31 May 2017, lot 3013. A pair of this shape but decorated with doucai decorations was formerly in the Greenwald Collection, sold at Christie’s Hong Kong, 1 December 2010, lot 2816.
