Lot 205. A Jun bowl, Yuan-Ming dynasty (1279-1644); 6 ¾ in. (17 cm.) diam. Estimate GBP 6,000 - GBP 8,000 (USD 7,824 - USD 10,432). © Christie's Images Ltd 2019.

The bowl is elegantly potted with flaring sides leading to a slightly incurved rim. The bowl is covered to the interior and exterior with a lightly crackled, unctuous sky-blue glaze mottled with pale cream and purple tones thinning to mushroom at the rim. The glaze stops unevenly just above the foot to reveal the buff body.
