Classic Chinese Cantonese Style Rooster Porcelain Tableware

Named after the rooster pattern painted inside and outside the bowl, the rooster bowl is one symbol item of a nostalgic series of underglaze porcelain tableware originated from Guangdong Province of China. Underglaze porcelains are handicrafts that are painted on the ceramic body, then covered with a layer of transparent or translucent glaze, and fired at high temperatures. The colors are bright and not easy to fade as well. The patterns are rich, and the shapes are diverse.

This porcelain bowl is a specialty bowl from the of Guangdong Province and Fujian Province. It is a shallow bowl with large mouth and small bottom. The rooster is depicted in red, dark green, and black colors. The overall rough craft reveals a retro style of beauty. Why is the rooster painted instead of other patterns? In old farming society, people worked at sunrise and rested at sunset. The rooster served as the sign of morning, waking everyone up to begin another hard day. It is a praise to farmers and worker class.

Nostalgic features of this rooster porcelain ware series are combined with modernized designs.  All the patterns and lines are hand-painted. Blue lines on the edges are must-have retro elements. Designed to be easy to stack and store therefore the porcelain edges are thickened to resist wear and tear.
