The bowl is closed, with lotus petal-shaped arc wall and round feet. The whole body is painted with azure glaze inside and outside, the outer wall is not painted to the bottom, the feet are unglazed, and the embryo is iron brown. This bowl was abandoned at the kiln site because of its defects in firing and sticking to the funnel-shaped saggar. It directly reflects the firing process of Jun kiln in the Yuan Dynasty, which is quite rare
Sagger is a kind of kiln furniture used to place and protect the blanks during the firing of porcelain. Place the saggar with the blanks layer by layer in the corresponding position in the kiln according to different firing requirements, and then ignite and bake. Using saggar for firing can avoid direct contact between utensils and kiln fireworks, dust and slag on the top of the kiln, so as to prevent porcelain from being polluted during firing. In addition, the use of saggar can make the porcelain evenly heated and improve the yield, so it is regarded as a major progress in the porcelain making process
