The form remains complete with the original grid pattern and raised porcelain game pieces clearly preserved. The white glaze has a soft appearance, with natural crazing and areas of aged earth-toned surface accretions from long-term burial and use. From a private collection in New York, USA.Description: This square elevated porcelain table represents a rare type of ancient Chinese ceramic game object created for the traditional game of Go. The entire piece is covered in a white glaze with a substantial and durable ceramic body. The flat tabletop is engraved with a detailed Go grid pattern, while raised rounded pieces are molded directly onto the surface to represent black and white Go stones. The stones are divided into two types, including pure white glazed pieces and white pieces decorated with brown-black painted dots on the tops, realistically recreating the arrangement of an actual Go match. The design reflects a highly creative approach to combining function and craftsmanship. The sides of the table feature openwork panels with continuous ruyi cloud-shaped openings, creating an elegant architectural structure while reducing visual heaviness. The straight-sided square base and framed feet provide a stable and balanced appearance. The underside is an open square compartment covered with white glaze, displaying natural fine crazing and areas of yellow-brown surface accretions formed over time, giving the piece a strong sense of age and history. The glaze remains soft and luminous, while the raised porcelain stones and painted details retain a simple and refined character. The chessboard and supporting table structure were fired as a single integrated piece, demonstrating exceptional technical skill. Go has long been associated with Chinese literati culture, and complete porcelain Go sets of this type are extremely rare. As both a scholar’s elegant object and an important material example of traditional gaming culture, this porcelain Go table carries significant historical and artistic value.
