I-hsing Ware Square Tea
Pot with Painted Floral
Decor
K'ang-hsi period (A.D.
1662-1722)
Ch'ing Dynasty

I-hsing red stoneware
emerged as a distinctive
type of pottery beginning
in the Ming dynasty. In
addition to its original
red stoneware body , this
pot also has a painted
floral design which has
been fired over the top.
This combination of red
stoneware and enamel
colors is highly unusual.
