元 楊茂款雕漆剔紅牡丹紋葵口盤|Dish with peonies
Yang Mao
14th century · Carved red lacquer · Asian Art
The deep carving of the peonies and leaves in this small dish is typical of Chinese lacquerware produced in the first half of the fourteenth century. A similar example dated before 1333 was recovered during the 1976–84 excavation of a famous shipwreck off the Sinan Islands near the southwestern coast of Korea.
