Cup with phoenixes
This white porcelain cup of conical shape is decorated inside with an anhua (hidden decoration) slip design of phoenixes among clouds. Porcelains of this type were made in imitation of fine Qing dynasty porcelains which in turn were inspired by early porcelains of the Ming period.
