ABOUT PRODUCTID 16886
This porcelain vase from Shen Shou, produced in China in the 1980s, represents a nuanced dialogue between classic craftsmanship and late 20th-century artisanal glazing. Of medium size (17 cm high and 18 cm wide at the broadest point), its profile is broadly oval with a gentle taper towards both the base and rim, and a softly rounded top edge. The surface is rendered in a muted, powdery pink crystal glaze with irregular, milky-white crystalline patterns—unique to each piece due to the unpredictable nature of the firing process. Three subtly incised, diagonal bands encircle the lower portion, introducing additional rhythmic texture and a tactile contrast to the vessel’s otherwise smooth body. An original Shen Shou signature and label on the base confirm its provenance. The vase remains in excellent overall condition, with no visible cracks, discolorations, or signs of use. The form channels the meditative quality of late 20th-century East Asian workshops. Matte, misty pink and pale crystalline bursts evoke impressions of fog lifting over mountainous Chinese landscapes, reflecting a moment when traditional crafts engaged contemporary aesthetics. Each unique blossom of glaze tells the story of a kiln’s fleeting chemistry—serendipity harnessed by skilled hands—underscoring the irreproducibility of crystal-glazed porcelain. The piece subtly points to the enduring allure of detail and artisanal precision. The vase could be paired with both minimalist and more eclectic living or study interiors. It performs well upon a light wooden or stone surface, where its glaze can reflect and scatter natural
