[Longquan Kiln Green Glazed String Bottle]
Longquan Kiln Green Glazed String Bottle, Song Dynasty, height 31 cm, caliber 10 cm, foot diameter 11.3 cm
The bottle washing mouth is closed, the neck is thin and long, the shoulders are oblique, the belly is flat and round, and the feet are curled outward. There are 3 protruding chord lines in the neck and 4 protruding chord lines in the middle of the abdomen. The body of the fetus is white, and the inside and outside are covered with pink glaze. The exposed part of the foot ring shows flint red
It is green, juicy and translucent, as warm as jade, especially the seven string lines protruding from the body. The protruding part of the glaze shows white fetal bones, forming white lines, commonly known as “ribs”. It consciously highlights the whiteness of the adobe, sets off the beauty of the blue glaze, and represents the high firing level of Longquan Kiln in the Southern Song Dynasty in its heyday.
