Its design is inspired by a mallow flower with five petals. Here the overlapping petals are suggested by using raised slip lines beneath the crackled celadon glaze. Members of the Northern Song imperial court used such stands to support bowls of various materials for drinking tea. Korean potters supplying the Goryeo court with high quality ceramics in the twelfth century made close copies of such Ru wares. Both Korean celadons (see Gallery 94) and Chinese Ru wares have chemically similar glazes, suggesting an early international exchange of technology.Stoneware with celadon glazeRu ware汝窯Qingliangsi, Baofeng county, Henan province 河南省，寳豐縣，清凉寺Northern Song dynasty, about AD 1086–1125 PDF 81 天青釉葵瓣式盞托此盞托採用滿釉裹足支燒法，圈足留有五個橢圓形芝麻掙釘痕跡。托盤呈五瓣葵花形，花瓣重疊，五曲帶筋，施青釉，釉面有開片。北宋宮廷將此類盞托用作茶具，承托不同材質的茶碗。十二世紀時，高麗陶工們也已經能夠燒造此類高品質的仿汝窯產品進奉宮廷。高麗青瓷（參見94號展廳）與汝窯青瓷在化學成分上頗為相似，顯示了早期國際間的陶瓷技術交流。炻器，青釉汝窯河南省寶豐縣清涼寺北宋，約1086-1125年
