Jun-Ware Plate, Jin Dynasty, 1127 – 1279 A.D. © Zetterquist Galleries

Diameter: 15.4cm

A stoneware plate covered in a rich robin’s egg blue colored glaze which thins at the rim to a mushroom color. The glaze stops above the unglazed foot rim which reveals a gray stoneware body, and a deep foot-well, the interior of which has been glazed in a manner typical of Jin Dynasty examples. This piece is remarkable for the ideal color and richness of its glaze.

A similar example is published in Chinese Ceramics from the Meiyintang Collection, Volume I. London, 1994. Pl. 381
