[QUOTE="georgeingraham, post: 3270205, member: 6261"]Guess I can share another piece that came last week.. This 7 1/2" tall "gongzai" Monk looks more like a child than adult. The blue, Jun type glaze scarf is quite unusual. Looks like something a child might wear and is impressed with what looks like scrolling cloud or silk worm symbols. Holding a matching colored bag or satchel and a fan in the other hand. Made from an unrefined course Shiwan clay with something heavily mixed in that I am pretty sure is salt. Cream colored crackled porcelain, thickly applied for the robe and fan. It was first formed from a single flat piece of clay that was folded over and then tucked under the base before sculpting. Potters mark is incised on the exterior. Dated to about 1890. Enjoy !
