• Description:
  The mouth is closed, the abdomen is curved, and the feet are short. The fetal bone is thick and heavy, with green glaze applied inside and outside. The glaze is gray and white, and the inside and outside are covered with gray patterns. The mouth edge and foot end are coated with black brown fetal protection fluid. There are six studs on the inner bottom surface, and dark gray fetus is exposed in the support marks. The shapes similar to this work generally appeared in the northern and southern kilns during the Song and Yuan Dynasties. In particular, the trend of imitating gold and silver wares circulated among different kilns can be felt by comparing the gold and silver wares unearthed in Pengzhou, Sichuan Province. The “Antique Painting” volume in the British Museum shows the process of the handed down of the cover accessories.
