Yuan Dynasty
Finely decorated with a horned mythical beast gazing at the crescent moon and surrounded by flowering branches, the interior wall with a frieze of scrolling flowers and leafy vines, enclosed by a flat rim with one row of florets within the bracket-lobed edge, the exterior wall with radiating grooves, all supported on a thick ring foot, covered inside and out by a translucent sea-foam green glaze pooling to darker tones in the recess, the center of the base wiped clean of glaze and burnt orange-brown from firing.
