Ravenel Spring Auction 2015 Hong Kong

A VERY RARE AND SMALL JUNYAO TEABOWL Song Dynasty (AD960-1279)

This teabowl has a flaring lip, curved walls, and a round foot. It is completely covered with sky blue glaze, except for the round foot. Jun ware comes in an incredible variety of beautiful colors, and this bowl with its very evenly applied azure finish is a prime example. The glaze is thinner at the rim, where some of the ceramic body's ocher hue is revealed. Close to the round foot, the finish is somewhat thicker than elsewhere, because the opaque glaze was allowed to run. A simple yet attractive design that is certain to find its admirers.
