- Lot Description
Possibly Song Dynasty (960-1279)
The bowl thinly potted, with a narrow groove below the rim, covered overall with a lustrous glaze streaked with fine 'hare's fur' markings on the exterior and interior, the glaze stopping above the foot, revealing the chocolate brown color of the stoneware body.
H. 2 7/8 in., W. 5 3/16 in.
Note: During the firing process, the body was misshaped, creating a slightly oval rim profile.
Note: Jian ware is a type of Chinese pottery originally made in Jianyang, Fujian province and is known in Japan as Tenmoku. Jian bowls with hare’s fur streaks were held in great esteem not only in China but also in Japan. It was simple stoneware, made with subtle effects in the glazes. In the Song dynasty they achieved a high prestige, especially among Buddhist monks and in relation to tea-drinking. They were also highly valued in Japan, where many of the best examples were collected. Though the ceramic body is light-colored, the wares normally are glazed in dark colors, with special effects such as the "hare's fur" "oil-spot" and "partridge feather" patterns caused randomly as excess iron in the glaze is forced out during firing.
Condition: The glaze on the lower portion of the body is missing approx. 2 3/4 x 1 in. Also, the foot rim appears to have been slightly shaved, perhaps to stabilize the piece.( see photos), abrasion commensurate with age.The absence of a condition report does not indicate the lot is free of damage or condition issues. Available Condition Reports will appear as an additional image. Condition Reports and photographs may be requested on items. Bid accordingly. All sales are final, no returns are accepted on the basis of condition.Condition
