The brilliant purple splashes on the current bowl were produced by the
addition of copper oxides to the surface of unfired glaze, a decorative
technique that appeared on Jun wares starting from the end of the 11th
century.

Jun bowls with splashes on both the interior and exterior are highly
sought after. Examples of similar bowls, mostly of below 9 cm. in
diameter, include one in the Palace Museum, Beijing, illustrated in
Porcelain of the Song Dynasty (I), The Complete Collection of Treasures
of the Palace Museum, Hong Kong, 1996, p. 246, pl. 222 (8.3 cm.
diam.); another in the collection of the Percival David Foundation,
illustrated by S. Pierson, Song Ceramics: Objects of Admiration, London,
2003, p. 61, pl. 20 (PDF 45B) (8.6 cm. diam.); one formerly in the
Linyushanren Collection, sold at Christie’s Hong Kong, 2 December
2015, lot 2808.
