A MOLDED YAOZHOU DISH <br/>NORTHERN SONG DYNASTY (960-1127)
This dish has a barbed rim, shallow belly, and ring foot. The center of the dish is decorated with a pattern of intertwined branches and chrysanthemum flowers; on the inner walls, six spines divide the surface into six sunflower petals, each of which is in turn decorated with branches and flowers. The dish is decorated all over with green glaze, except for the foot. This small, delicate and refined dish features thick, lustrous glaze, and smooth, precise decoration; it is a truly outstanding example of Yaozhou ware.
