- Description:
The round mouth is folded along a six petal flower shape, with a short straight neck, a large belly and a lean foot. Jun red glaze is applied to the whole body, showing red, indigo, purple, moon white and other multi-color mixed flow kiln glaze, and light moon white blue glaze is applied to the mouth and the folding edge. The bottom of the utensil is covered with paste glaze, and the bottom heart is printed with six characters and three lines of seal characters “made in the year of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty”. The feet are exposed, and ochre juice is applied. The imitated Jun glaze became a new variety in the Yongzheng period. It was derived from the imitated Jun glaze color. It was used many times to apply glaze. During the firing process, different metal elements naturally combined. The glaze color of the flowing kiln is generally red, which is called “flame red”.
