明晚或清早青花小茶园一对

“A pair of late Ming or early Qing dynasty small blue and white teacups, adorned with patterns of flowing water and falling flowers. Each cup features an open window with the four-character calligraphy ‘金积玉雅’ (or ‘雅玉积金’) in a relaxed yet rhythmic brush style. The rims are glazed in soy sauce color, with high ringed feet. One cup has a flat-cut bottom foot with the four-character ‘Wanli Year Made’ mark, while the other has a loach-back ringed foot with the six-character ‘Great Ming Wanli Year Made’ mark. Inside the cups, under a double circle, are blue and white painted rabbits, rendered in a simple yet spirited style, focusing on essence rather than detail. The cups have a diameter of about 8 centimeters and a height of 4 centimeters. They are rare 17th-century tea vessels in excellent condition, reflecting refined taste and culture. Originating from a seasoned collector in Hong Kong.”
