Thinly potted with upright rounded form, overall covered in a consistent pale bluish glaze suffused with attractive and extensive crackles. Southern Song Dynasty period.

此器呈缽式，唇口，圓鼓腹，平底，口面較寬，整體器型豐腴飽滿。胎體厚薄均勻，內壁施透明釉，釉質光潔瑩潤，外壁施翠青釉，釉面凝厚瑩亮，極見端莊脫俗。此造型源自佛教之缽盂，缽盂又稱應器、應量器，是印度僧侶手托著用來接受布施的法器，也是盛飲食供於佛前的供養之具。中國藏傳佛教對缽盂的使用頗為流行，為修持必備之物。此缽式洗造型端莊大氣，釉色肥美，置於案首，賞心悅目，是極為難得的文房陳設用具，值得典藏。
