| A most interesting dish of lively design from the famed Hoi An wreck, excavated from 1997 to 1999. As Dessa Goddard pointed out in "Arts of Asia" magazine in 2001: "Prior to the discovery of the Hoi An cargo, Vietnamese ceramics were relatively unknown to the world outside of the community of scholars and collectors of Southeast Asia ceramics." All of that changed with the discovery of this important and diverse commercial cargo. This 15th C. bowl measures 9" (d) x 2" (h). The obverse is crisp and clear, the reverse exhibits stains acquired during 500 years on the ocean floor. Additional photos available. | ||
