Description:

East Asia, China, Yuan Dynasty, ca. 1271 to 1368 CE. A beautiful example of ancient Jun ware in the form of a vase with a thick, rolled rim and a single applied leaf-shaped decoration at its shoulder. The glaze is a pale, olive green. Jun wares are typically heavily potted and have an unglazed, round base with thick glaze - often frozen at the point of dripping - above it. None of these wares have been excavated south of the Yangtze River, so it seems likely that they were just for domestic use in northern China (other wares from this period seem to have been explicitly made for export). The Yuan Dynasty, established by the Mongolian warlord Kublai Khan, created the Fuliang Ciju (Fuliang Porcelain Bureau), entrusted with porcelain production, at the kilning center of Jingdezhen. Other kilning centers included Henan, Hebei, Shanxi, and Inner Mongolia. Size: 4.85" W x 6.1" H (12.3 cm x 15.5 cm)
