{"product_id":"antique-chinese-ceramics-171","title":"BOWL, Yuezhou kiln, celadon, Song Dynasty（960–1279 CE）","description":"\u003cp\u003eA celadon bowl from the Yuezhou kiln of the Song Dynasty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA broadly opening bowl form with the rim slightly everted and a low footring.\u003cbr\u003eThe glaze ranges from gray-green to a yellow-tinged celadon, with fine crackle spreading across both interior and exterior. A reddish soil stain, likely from burial, remains around the rim and footring, and the interplay of blue-green glaze and earth tones gives the surface the characteristic appearance of early Yuezhou kiln wares.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Yuezhou kiln, in the Zhejiang region, was a center for celadon production that developed from the Tang through the Five Dynasties into the Song dynasty.\u003cbr\u003eUnlike later celadons that sought a clear blue, its appeal lies in the thickness of its ash-rich glazes, the iron-bearing clay, and the ash-green variations produced during firing. This bowl, too, is not of uniform beauty but remains with crazing, earth staining, and glaze irregularities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe interior bears a concentric stepped ring; the glaze surface shows fine crazing, iron spots, and soil staining.\u003cbr\u003eThe exterior retains much of its gray-green glaze, while the area around the foot is unglazed, exposing the clay body. The rim shows abrasion, and overall, typical of excavated ceramics, it presents a mellow, soil-streaked appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt could also be regarded as a stand for Chinese tea or sencha vessels.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ROCANIIRU COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52827456831769,"sku":null,"price":276.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/9911\/1193\/files\/2026070917639.jpg?v=1784039816","url":"https:\/\/rcnir.com\/en-au\/products\/antique-chinese-ceramics-171","provider":"入蘆花（ロカニイル）","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
