About MePorcelain fluted bowl with an everted rim and narrow foot.The bowl is fully glazed in a pale green celadon glaze which thins over the rim and fluting to emphasise the shape.
Celadon is a type of glaze which originated in China. It requires a small amount of iron oxide to give the finished colour which can range from pale green or blue to darker olive greens.
