Description:
This is a Chinese celadon-glazed stoneware bowl, likely produced in the Longquan kilns. The piece features a thick, translucent bluish-green celadon glaze, which is characteristic of Longquan ware popular during the Southern Song (1127–1279) to Yuan Dynasty (1271–1368). The bowl displays classic crackle patterning in the glaze and has a repaired or stabilized crack line visible, suggesting both age and historical use. The underside is unglazed at the foot, showing a buff-colored stoneware body which is typical for authentic Longquan pieces. 这是一件中国龙泉窑青瓷釉石碗,器型规整,釉色呈青蓝色,具有龙泉窑典型的厚重青釉和开片纹理,最盛行于南宋(1127–1279)至元代(1271–1368)期间。碗上可见修复或加固裂纹,显示其年代久远且曾被使用。圈足部分无釉,露出浅褐色胎体,这是龙泉青瓷的典型特征。

Condition:
Fair (old stabilized crack, visible repair, minor glaze wear)
Identification Score: 90%
The shape, glaze color, crackle pattern, and unglazed foot are highly consistent with Longquan celadon bowls from the Song-Yuan period. Some details, especially the nature of the repair, leave minor uncertainty. 器型、釉色、开片和无釉圈足高度符合宋元时期龙泉青瓷特征。由于修复部分的细节存在少许不确定性,因此评分略有保留。
Authenticity Score: 70%
The materials, base, and glazing correspond well to period originals. The repair is an old method consistent with historical practices, but lack of clear kiln marks and examination of finer details precludes a higher authenticity score. 从胎质、釉色及底部特征来看与当时代真品高度吻合。修补工艺属传统方法,但由于未见清晰款识及缺乏更细致特征观察,故未给出更高的真伪评分。
