Fluted bowls from the Jun kilns covered with
a green glaze, such as the present bowl, are
extremely rare. The unusual form is more
commonly found with pale blue glazes
throughout the Northern Song, Jin and Yuan
dynasties: see, for example, such a blue
Jun futed bowl, dated to the Song dynasty,
unearthed at Shenzhou City, Hebei Province,
and illustrated in Complete Collection of
Ceramics Art Unearthed in China – 3 – Hebei,
Beijing, 2008, p. 129, no. 129; and a ‘moon-
white’ Jun futed bowl dated to the Jin dynasty
excavated in 1978 from a hoard in Shigu,
Changge County, Henan Province, and now in
the Henan Museum, illustrated in Complete
Collection of Ceramics Art Unearthed in China
– 12 – Henan, Beijing, 2008, p. 162, no. 162.

Two Yuan-dynasty examples are in the
collection of the National Palace Museum,
Taipei, and illustrated in A Panorama of
Ceramics in the Collection of the National
Palace Museum: Chün Ware, Taipei, 1999, pp.
168-171, nos. 66 and 57.
A related green Jun futed bowl, but with
slightly deeper, more rounded sides, from
the Yangdetang Collection, was ofered at
Christie’s Hong Kong, 30 November 2016, lot
