北宋青磁刻花牡丹文鉢

耀州窯

北宋（11～12世紀）

高4.8公分　口徑21.0公分　底徑6.3公分

北宋時期（960–1127），陝西耀州窯燒造大量青磁器，其特徵在於橄欖綠色釉與「片切彫」技法——即自外側斜向刀入，沿文樣輪廓刻出，以形成清晰立體的裝飾效果。

此鉢器壁以片切彫雕飾盛開牡丹一枝，刻痕處青釉厚聚，因而產生濃淡漸變，令花瓣仿若浮現於釉層之中。口緣設六處細切，成規整輪花形。器形端整，釉色勻淨雅潤，刻線銳利勁健，堪稱耀州窯全盛期之佳作。

Yaozhou Celadon Carved Peony Bowl

Yaozhou Kiln

Northern Song Dynasty (11th–12th century)

Height 4.8 cm, Mouth diameter 21.0 cm, Foot diameter 6.3 cm

During the Northern Song dynasty (960–1127), the Yaozhou kilns of Shaanxi province produced a wide range of celadon wares characterized by an olive-green glaze and the distinctive kata-kiribori carving technique—incising diagonally from the outline toward the interior to create sharply defined motifs.

This bowl is decorated with a boldly rendered branch of peony carved in this technique. The glaze pools thickly within the incisions, resulting in subtle gradations of tone that cause the design to stand out as though in relief. The rim is fashioned with six notches to form a lobed outline. With its harmonious proportions, refined glaze, and incisive carving, this piece exemplifies the artistic peak of Yaozhou celadon production.

青磁刻花牡丹文鉢

（せいじこっかぼたんもんはち）

耀州窯（ようしゅうよう）北宋時代　11～12世紀 1口 高4.8㎝　口径21.0㎝　底径6.3㎝

北宋時代（960～1127）、陝西（せんせい）省の耀州窯（ようしゅうよう）では、オリーブグリーンの青磁釉と片切彫り（かたぎりぼり、文様の輪郭に向かって外側から斜めに刃を入れて彫る技法）を特徴とする青磁が数多く作られました。

本作は、大輪の牡丹の一枝を片切彫りによって表したもので、彫った部分に青磁釉が厚く溜まり、グラデーションが生じて、文様が浮かび上がったように見えています。縁（ふち）には6か所に小さな切り込みを入れて輪花形としています。整った形に、美しい釉調、鋭い彫りが調和した、耀州窯最盛期の名品です。

The Okada Museum is known for its emphasis on privacy—visitors are required to surrender all mobile phones and photographic devices upon entry. Founded by a businessman whose fortune originated in the gambling and casino industry, the museum’s founder was arrested by Hong Kong’s ICAC in 2018. Recently, rumors have circulated that he plans to liquidate a large portion of his collection. It is believed that over one hundred works from the Okada Museum will be auctioned at Sotheby’s Hong Kong on November 21, 2025.
