Ming Dynasty Wanli Period Doucai-Style Kongming Bowl with Double-Walled Structure
A Rare Ming Court Innovation in Thermal Insulation Ceramics

The so-called "Kongming Bowl" derives its name not from the famed strategist Zhuge Liang, but from the small “hole” (kong) at its base, which allows hot water to be poured into the inner cavity for heat retention. This innovative double-walled structure, serving both warming and insulating purposes, represents an early form of thermal technology in Chinese ceramics.

Dating to the Wanli reign (1573–1620) of the Ming dynasty, this piece reflects the imperial kilns’ continued exploration of form and function. While such bowls had appeared in earlier periods, the Wanli era reinterpreted their design with bolder proportions, more defined rim profiles, and enhanced decorative schemes. Kongming bowls were typically used for ritual or courtly purposes, often found in palace inventories and temple collections.

Rarity and technical ingenuity.
The process required precise firing: high-temperature firing for the outer celadon or doucai glaze, followed by careful assembly of the double-walled structure with functional venting and sealing. Due to their complexity, few examples survive intact, making this piece an important testimony to the ingenuity of late Ming porcelain craftsmanship.

Dimensions:
• Height: 10 cm / 3.94 in
• Base Diameter: 9.6 cm / 3.78 in
• Rim Diameter: 20 cm / 7.87 in
• Weight: 1121 g

Such warming bowls remain prized by collectors and institutions for their rare combination of practical innovation and ceremonial elegance.


明萬曆 青釉孔明碗(暖碗)
兼具宮廷禮儀與實用巧思的明代瓷器珍品

所謂「孔明碗」,實乃因碗底設孔可注熱水於夾層,並無涉諸葛孔明。其雙層結構既可保溫,亦具隔熱功效,是古代瓷器工藝中的一大創舉,素有「古代暖碗」之稱。

此器燒於明朝萬曆年間(1573–1620年),為宮廷陳設與祭祀之用,造型飽滿端莊,口沿開敞,氣韻莊重。萬曆時期瓷器工藝達到一個新高峰,孔明碗亦在此時得到重新詮釋與改良,融合功能與審美,極具時代特色。

製作繁複,傳世稀見。
燒造需經高溫外壁釉燒、雙層結構密合、孔道設計通暢等多道工序,稍有不慎即成廢品。由於製作難度極高,至今流傳者極為稀有,彌足珍貴。

藏品規格:
• 高度:10 cm
• 底徑:9.6 cm
• 口徑:20 cm
• 重量:1121 克

此器不僅具實用價值,更承載明代宮廷器用文化之深厚內涵,為收藏與研究明瓷不可多得之範例。
