​​Subject & Motif: ​Aquatic Fauna: Polychrome enameled angelfish / reef fish rendered with fine dorsal/tail shading and individual scale feathering, swimming amidst underglaze cobalt blue aquatic plants and sea flora. ​Calligraphy & Seals: Hand-painted poetic inscription in semi-cursive script (xingshu) along the upper reverse shoulder. Includes iron-red overglaze artist/studio seal marks (恒 / Heng). 22" tall 18" wide ​Porcelain Quality: High-fired white vitreous porcelain body with a short rolled lip, soft blue/green atmospheric background wash, and cobalt blue band around the ring foot. Condition Assessment Glaze & Body: Excellent condition; clean gloss with no visible chips, flea bites, or hair-line cracks along the rolled mouth rim or body. Enamels: Crisp overglaze enameling with no paint loss or rubbing on the fish bodies. In classical Chinese decorative porcelain, fish (yú / 鱼) are a direct homophone for "surplus/abundance" (yú / 余). Pairing swimming fish with the traditional blessing "Nian Nian You Yu" (Every Year Have Surplus) symbolizes enduring wealth, good fortune, and household abundance.
