SUPERB ANTIQUE SONG DYNASTY CHINESE BOTTLE VASE Rare Jian Yao Stoneware Pottery
SUPERB CHINESE SONG DYNASTY STONEWARE BOTTLE VASE. Magnificent Chinese Song Dynasty Jian ware bottle vase of exceedingly rare form. Absolutely spectacular presence, with a strong rounded body and tall slender neck, tapering slightly toward the cup shaped mouth with slightly everted rim. Covered inside and out with a rich dark brown glaze, heavily applied with translucent amber appearance in areas where the glaze is thinner over the beautifully potted ridges. An exceptionally rare and important piece. The dark, deep glaze is most tactilely pleasing with a sublime surface patina, and when held at just the right angle displays a slight blue iridescence in places indicative of the age (see photos). In excellent antique condition bearing subtle crazing. We note a couple of small old chips to the rim, however this does not detract from the overall beauty of the piece and could be restored if so desired. This exquisite vase measures approximately 8.75 inches tall, and is quite solidly potted with well thrown walls. Beautiful from every angle with an elegant contour. The Japanese have highly revered these Jian ware ceramics for centuries, where they were known as tenmoku glazed objects. They were especially prized for use in the tea room, and we expect that this exceptionally fine example has witnessed many tea gatherings from its vantage point in the tokonoma alcove in various tea rooms over the centuries. If only it could tell the stories of the gatherings that it has quietly witnessed. A magnificent centerpiece for the discriminating connoisseur of world class Chinese antiques and ceramics.
