This tea bowl is conical shape reminiscence of amboo hat (douli), its rim is curving slightly outwards, and it rests on a small round foot. The bowl is glazed celadon except for the foot showing the taupe colored body, the celadon glaze presenting a yellow-green hue. On the exterior, radiating lines with the foot as the center are carved as decoration. On the inner side, patterns of swimming fish in the sea are impressed down, the sea wave motif especially distinct, giving a sense of roaring waves. Four small fish are scattered in the bowl, portraying a state of carefree roaming, explaining what the Chinese philosophy of “you are not a fish, so how would you know the happiness of one.”
