The base of the footring is glazed in celadon. The bowl bears large crackles. It seems that originally this bowl had a celadon glaze, but it was thickly re-glazed in a light blue with splashing purple glazes. This can be perceived by looking at the junction where the current glaze and the original celadon join on the bottom of the body. Furthermore, the inner and outer sides of the mouthrim still remain celadon. Such a practice is rarely seen on the existing antique Jun-type wares. Evidently, this practice of re-glazing does not follow the usual procedures of producing the Jun-type wares. Moreover, the glaze on it appears exceedingly bright when held against the light, which is indicative of later copies according to a book titled gu wan zhi nan (Guide of Chinese Antiques) written in 1942 by Zhao Ruzhen, a prestigious modern connoisseur. This piece should, therefore, be just a recent copy of the Song products (960-1279), approximately made during the late 19th century to the mid 20th century. *Jun kiln, a famous kiln of the Northern Song and Jin dynasties, was located in present-day Yu county, of the Henan province which was once under the administration of the Junzhou (Jun prefecture). The excavation of the Baguadong and Juntai kiln sites during 1974-75 proved that the former was the kiln which fired tribute wares for the use of Emperor Huizong of the Northern Song. The Jun kiln made use of iron and copper colorants to fire an opacified bluish glaze with variations such as light sky-blue, or moon-white and red or purple splashes. Normally the glaze was applied to a biscuit body. The firing of copper red in a reducing atmosphere was an invention by the Changsha potters in the Tang dynasty. The Song Jun potters developed it further, adding one more variety to the family of high-fired green and black glazes. The success of the Jun copper red laid the foundation for the fresh red (xian hong) glaze achieved in Jingdezhen during the Ming and Qing. During the Jun and Yuan dynasties, many kilns in the Henan province manufactured Jun ware and many kilns in the Hebei and the Shanxi provinces produced its imitations. The production increased dramatically in the Yuan dynasty and many large vessels were fired. However, the body was coarser and the glaze often stopped halfway downwards on vessels such as dishes and bowls. One characteristic of Jun ware is the earthworm-track markings on the surface of the glaze, which rarely occurred on later imitations."},{"label":"Title","value":"Jun-type bowl"},{"label":"Rights","value":"Materials available through GettDigital encompass a wide range of works, many of which are in the public domain.
