In Ming Dynasty, the imitation of Song official kiln ware generally only focused on the glaze color of the imitation of Song ware rather than its shape, so there are few works of authenticity. In addition to the glaze color of the imitation of Song and Ru kiln ware, its shape and appearance show the characteristics of Xuande official kiln porcelain. The imitation Ru glazed porcelain of the Ming Dynasty can only be seen in Xuande official kilns. The same specimen as this plate was unearthed at the Xuande official kiln site in Zhushan, Jingdezhen
