Southern Song Dynasty Guanware Rice-colored Celadon Washer with Peach Shaped

A washer made in a official kiln in the Southern Song dynasty.
It's shaped like two peaches connected together, one of which is open, and the other one has a hollow inside with a covered top.
In China, peaches are considered auspicious, such as immortality and longevity, and are a popular motif in ceramics.
It is very elaborately made like a government kiln, and the shape of the peach is almost symmetrical and beautifully sculpted.
In particular, the peach leaves have sharp corners, and the tips are sharp and beautiful.
A yellowish glaze is applied to clay containing a lot of iron, which is typical of Southern Song Dynasty official kilns.
This is a celadon glaze, and it is called rice-colored celadon, which takes on a yellow tint as the glaze oxidizes during firing.
At that time, it was not possible to strictly control the oxygen in the kilns, and it was difficult to aim for rice-colored celadon.
In particular, the rice-colored celadon porcelain manufactured in the Southern Song Dynasty is a very rare item with a high rarity value.

There is no conspicuous flaws.It has good luster throughout and is in good condition.
