This 13th-14th century Chinese Jun ware bowl exemplifies the distinctive characteristics of the style. Crafted from stoneware, its surface is covered in a mesmerizing blue-green glaze that showcases an uneven application, creating a unique and textured surface. The bowl’s gently rounded form and subtle variations in glaze color contribute to its understated elegance. Jun ware, renowned for its iridescent glazes and subtle color variations, became a significant ceramic tradition during the Song Dynasty (960–1279) and continued to be popular in later periods.
