Description: A black bowl from 12th Century was well molded and glazed uniquely. Applied in mottles with brown glaze on the interior and exterior against the black glaze, abstract firing effects was yielded with charming purplish blue when amid with brownish tint. Minute pinpoints incursions were spread dispersedly on the surface reflecting the dirt-like foggy hue(see pictures 9, 10, 11), and makes the mottles like different halos. The bowl was dipped into the black glaze swiftly twice before being added with splashed decoration and making the glaze stop short of the foot rim. That methods can be easily judged by the eye-like shape of the revealed clay around the bottom. Set at a slight angle, the footring has straight wall and a slight angled bottom. Adhesives from excavation were firmly left on the hard buff body clay for verifying. Almost identical on the glaze effect to a piece illustrated in “Hare’s Fur, Tortoiseshell and Partridge Feathers” “Chinese Brown- and Black-Glazed Ceramics, 400 ~ 1400”, Robert D. Mowry, Harvard University Art Museums, 1995, plate 45. The provenance can be sure that the bowl was from the kiln of Xiaoyu, Shanxi province, 12th Century. IT IS A VERY CHARMING PIECE FROM THE PICTURES AND FROM THE PERSONAL OBSERVING TOO. MOST IMPORTANTLY, LET ALONE THE MYSTERIOUS GLAZE EFFECTS, THE CONVINCING PROOFS FOR AUTHENTICATION ARE EVERYWHERE AND OBVIOUS. . Date: Jin dynasty, 12th Century. Width: 13.9cm, Height: 5.1cm.
