Measuring 14 inches in diameter and 6 inches tall without the base — 8 inches with it — this is a commanding piece with real visual weight and decorative impact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe bowl is decorated in the classic Imari palette of deep underglaze blue, iron-red, green, and gilding, with the interior and exterior divided into alternating panels in the traditional manner. Reserved against the cobalt ground are shaped cartouches depicting pavilion landscapes, peonies, and chrysanthemums rendered with considerable care and detail. Gold scrollwork fills the ground between panels, and the overall effect is rich and densely decorative in the best Imari tradition. The flared form is well-proportioned and the glaze is bright and even throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe base carries a red seal mark in the Chinese style, consistent with quality export production of the mid-to-late 20th century. The unglazed footrim shows honest wear appropriate to the age of the piece. The bowl is free of chips or cracks and presents extremely well. A retailer's label is also present on the base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eBowls of this size and quality make exceptional centrepiece display pieces — equally suited to a traditional dining room, a chinoiserie interior, or a collector's cabinet. The hardwood stand is included and completes the presentation beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"William Cross","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41578765942917,"sku":null,"price":275.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0310\/4050\/3941\/files\/batch_IMG_8692_13a08e52-37fa-4e79-bc7f-bf8c4641f4dc.jpg?v=1775838443","url":"https:\/\/william-cross.com\/products\/large-chinese-imari-style-porcelain-punch-bowl-with-hardwood-stand-14-diameter-20th-century","provider":"William Cross","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
