A BLUE-GLAZED JUNYAO DISH <br/>SONG DYNASTY (960-1279)
Featuring a wide mouth, shallow belly, folded rim, and a round base, this plain saucer is glazed in a brilliant sky blue. A portion of the bottom is left unglazed, and the rim of the mouth is slightly glazed in butter yellow. This saucer, which was crafted by the Jun Kiln, has a simple shape and richly colored glaze. Although there are no decorative patterns, a thought-provoking sense of Zen seems to pervade the entire item, making it a considerable treasure for discerning Song porcelain collectors.
