Pale-green glaze refers to the light greenish and blueish green glaze. Gold tracery is a decoration method to trace the porcelain pattern with powdered or liquid gold to make it magnificent, splendid and luxurious, much favored by rich families. After firing, the porcelain can be polished with agate or stone sand to increase the gloss of the surface. Featuring contrasting colors and dignified style, this bowl with cover looks elegant and graceful. The stand is glazed with tea-dust to imitate the appearance of bronzes, which was also a fashion at that time.
