A PAIR OF JUN BLUE-GREEN GLAZED PLATES WITH FOLDED RIMS
Song or Jin Dynasty
These plates have open mouths, shallow abdominals, and a rim that folds outwards. The bottoms of the plates are unglazed. The outer rims of the plates are brown. On the inner walls near the rim, there are also circles of brown, which highlights the contours of the rim, while exerting a decorative feature. The interior and exterior of the plates are all glazed, yet they also are also blended with different colors due to kiln transformation. One of the plates exhibit a circle of fog-like purple in the center, while the other plate has a wide swath of green-yellow across the abdominal wall. The spots and fine lines derived from kiln transformation lets these two plates exhibit different dispositions.
