Yellow Bowl With Birds


This porcelain Yellow Bowl was painted with many embossed birds perching on the blooming cherry tree. The Chinese beliefs on the geomancy that having many birds will bring abundance of travels. I am a firm believer in this.




This bowl was made during the reign of Emperor Guangxu (14 August 1871 – 14 November 1908) of Qing Dynasty.

    1. Thanks and I agree that this yellow bowl is very lively with vibrance. That is how feng shui works by getting our brains excited to draw the right energy. If I see bird prints often, I would fly often and that's happening to my wife these days who is in overseas 3-4 times a month. She often stares at the birds picture on the dining walls.
