Lot 862. A group of three small glazed stoneware containers, Trần dynasty, 13th-15th century; 6 3/8, 4 3/8 and 4in (16.3, 11 and 10.3cm) diameter. Estimate US$ 1,000 - 1,500 (€840 - 1,300). Unsold. Photo: Bonhams.

The first a dish molded with a petal rim and chrysanthemum petals across the shallow well, incised lines radiating outward form a narrow foot and recessed base, five spur marks visible in the gray-green glaze covering the well and most of the exterior walls; the second a bowl of compressed globular form incised with string bands above and below a band with C-shaped punches impressed into the exterior walls, the dark olive-brown glaze stopping above the tall foot and recessed base; the third a deep cup of chrysanthemum flower shape with a rim conforming to the petals molded into the walls, a cream colored glaze stopping unevenly along the foot, leaving the pad and recessed base unglazed. 

For two dishes of chrysanthemum flower shape similar to the front and back surfaces of this lot, see John Stevenson and John Guy, Vietnamese Ceramics: A Separate Tradition, 1997, p.272, no. 183 (as 13th/14th century). The chrysanthemum cup in this lot seems to be identical in shape and size to one labeled as a wine cup, 14th/15th century (4in [10.16cm] diameter) in the collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Art, Gift of Funds from Cliff and Sue Roberts, 92.41.1.
