A pair of Chinese Imperial famille rose 'Eighteen Luohans' bowls
Qing dynasty, Xianfeng marks and period
The gently rounded sides finely enamelled to the exteriors with the Eighteen Luohans on a continuous coastal landscape, each of them holding their implement, two of them crossing a bridge, with the misty peaks of the Isles of the Blessed in the distance, the bases with iron-red six-character marks in regular script, 14.6cm diameter each(2).
清咸豐 粉彩繪十八羅漢紋盌一對，礬紅楷書「大清咸豐年製」款
The present pair of bowls is decorated with the Eighteen Luohans, who act as guardians of the Buddhist faith, and have obtained enlightenment through merit and virtue.
Because of the logistic impediments caused by the Taiping rebellion, which wreaked havoc in much of Southern China between 1850 and 1874, Imperial orders at the factories at Jingdezhen are thought to have been successfully produced and transported only for the first two years of Xianfeng’s reign, making Xianfeng-marked Imperial porcelain extremely rare.
Cf. A bowl of the same decoration, but slightly bigger size, also from the Xianfeng reign, is in the Victoria and Albert Museum collection, no. 84-1883. Another bowl with the same decoration with Shendetang Zhi marks, also slightly bigger, was offered by Christie’s Hong Kong, 26 November 2014, lot 3328.
There is a light firing flaw to the rim of one, which appears as a vertical 5mm line from the rim, visible only with a white torch to the interior. Otherwise generally good, apart from a couple of insignificant firing blemishes.
