This beautifully made celadon dish is the work of respected UK‑based ceramic artist Poh Chap Yeap, known for his refined forms, translucent glazes, and mastery of traditional East Asian ceramic aesthetics within the British studio pottery movement.
The dish features a soft, even celadon glaze with a fine natural crackle pattern, giving the surface depth and a gentle inner glow. The form is shallow, balanced, and quietly sophisticated — the kind of restrained elegance Yeap is admired for. A single darker glaze blemish is present near the rim, a natural result of reduction firing and noted for accuracy.
Signed to the base, this piece dates to the 1980s–1990s, a period when Yeap’s celadon work was particularly strong and is now increasingly sought after by collectors. Comparable dishes of similar size (15–16 cm) are currently listed internationally in the $340–$380 AUD range, reflecting the rising appreciation for Yeap’s work.
This is a refined, display‑worthy example of his practice.
