Description:
Originating from East Asia, China, during the Ming Dynasty (circa 16th century), this vibrant glazed porcelain pillow features a recumbent lion or dragon depicted in exquisite detail. The creature is shown lying down, its ferocious expression accentuated by gnashing teeth. The back bears a circular medallion symbolizing prosperity, while the headrest is gently curved and raised, with a central leaf-like pattern. The entire piece is adorned with a striking green and yellow-toned Sankai glaze, adding a dynamic and colorful appearance characteristic of the period's craftsmanship.
