This pair of bowls is well fired, possessing a classic form and unique decoration. The mouth rims are decorated with two blue and white circles, complementing the bodies, which are covered with blue and white Sanskrit inscriptions. Their glaze is rich like jade, and their blue is vibrant. On the center of the bowls is a large Sanskrit "Buddha". On the bottoms is the blue and white 'Made in Ming Dynasty Wanli Period" six-character seal mark within two circles. These traits are indications of Wanli period imperial kiln products. The Palace Museum and the National Palace Museum both have similar Sanskrit bowls in their collections, which can be used for reference.

此對拍品造型精巧，撇口弧壁，臥足式。碗壁內外口沿以雙圈青花裝飾，整器以青花梵文作飾，碗心書一巨大梵文“佛”。底部落青花雙圈內書“大明萬曆年制”六字二行楷書款。此對碗燒製優良，造型經典，紋飾獨特，其釉厚潤如玉，青花髮色明豔，應屬於萬曆時期官窯精品之作，又是成對出現，難能可貴。故宮博物院和國立故宮博物院館藏皆有此類梵文碗，可資參考。
