The interior finely enamelled with three boys playing in a garden setting, enclosed in a double line ring, the exterior body painted with foliate scrolls, the underside inscribed with chenghua reign mark. Ming Dynasty period.


此盤敞口弧腹,下承圈足,造型工整規制,內外壁皆以青花為飾,盤心青花雙圈童子嬰戲圖紋飾,外壁裝飾八朵纏枝蓮紋,碗底青花“大明成化年制”六字楷書款,所繪紋樣俯仰有秩,線條流暢自如。青花呈色藍中帶灰,含蓄幽靜,為産於江西省樂平縣的國產青料,由於這種青料中氧化鐵含量較低,因而形成不同於宣德青花,濃妍似墨、深入胎骨的藝術效果。其胎質細膩純潔,白釉瑩潤如脂,光澤柔和,與國產「平等青」融為最佳結合,堪稱完美。來源:洛杉磯台籍藏家舊藏
