Posted By: Bill H Fri, Jan 01, 2021 I've seen Batavian wares of this tone sometimes called café au lait or other times not. The only times I use the term is when the tone gets more like what I show below in the first two bowls from the Nanking Cargo and another pair of cups. In any event, not teadust but apparent iridescence on the surface. Teadust is iron crystals within the glaze according to what I've read. |

Posted By: David Edwards Fri, Jan 01, 2021 Thank you for your reply Bill. I believe, from what I know of Kangxi porcelain that it may well be period. The difficulty is, finding someone in Australia to handle the piece and to verify. |
