The success of such a gracefully restrained vessel as the present dish
requires absolute mastery of the glaze during the fring process;
there can be no distractions from the simplicity of the form and
the luminosity of the glaze. To maintain this simplicity and ensure
maximum glaze coverage, including on the foot, the dish was
raised on fve tiny spurs for fring. The unusually large dimensions
of the present dish presented an additional challenge; the result is a
rare treasure of serenity and elegance.
A dish of similar size, also fred on fve small spurs, but with a
wider foot ring, is illustrated in A Panorama of Ceramics in the
Collection of the National Palace Museum: Chun Ware, Taipei, 1999,
p. 152-153, no. 58. Another similar Jun dish, but of smaller size
(19.7 cm. diam.) and with a fattened rim, is illustrated ibid.,
pp. 144-145, no. 54.
