A RARE MOLDED LOBED-RIM DING DISH <br/>NORTHERN SONG DYNASTY (960-1127)
This six-petal-shaped dish features a slightly open mouth, shallow belly, and a round base. The whole body is glazed in white and was fired repeatedly. The rim is unglazed. The heart of the saucer is decorated with flowering branches and under the mouth of the inner wall is surrounded by square thunder patterns. Two continuous interlocking floral patterns are visible underneath the patterns and outside the center of the dish. The dish has an elegant colored glaze and an orderly composition. With an intrinsic aesthetic that seems to silently emerge from the vessel and a soft and smooth shape, this piece is truly a rare and exquisite work made by the Ding Kiln.
