  • The Concept of the Five Famous Wares of the Song Dynasty —A Modern Invention
    The Concept of the Five Famous Wares of the Song Dynasty —A Modern Invention Sabrina Rastelli Department of Asian and North African Studies, Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, Venice, Italy Abstract The concept of the five famous wares of the Song dynasty is a fundamental theory that has influenced both researching and learning about Chinese ceramics. Archaeological excavations carried out since the 1950s and particularly during the past two decades have provided modern scholars with many and precious pieces of information that have deeply changed our understanding of the history of Chinese ceramics. They have also undermined the concept itself, but when discussing Ding, Ru, Jun, Guan or Ge experts seldom resist the temptation to remind that it is one of the five famous wares. The aim of this paper is to trace back when and how this definition was coined, by combing through Chinese sources. Key words five famous wares China ceramics ceramic literature Song The concept of the five famous wares of the Song dynasty (Songdai Wuda Mingyao 宋代五大名窑 ) is a fundamental theory that has influenced both researching and learning about Chinese ceramics. At the end of the 1980s, Song wares were classified as either official or popular. The first category was constituted by the so-called five famous wares of the Song dynasty, namely Ding(定), Ru(汝), Jun(钧), Guan(官)and Ge(哥). Ten years later, while researching for my PhD thesis, I began to doubt the exactness of this theory, but I explored the problem only from the perspective of the Yaozhou ( 耀州 ) kilns (Rastelli, 2008).

  • ESKENAZI CELEBRATES CHINESE CERAMICS of the SONG DYNASTY (960 to 1279 AD)
    ESKENAZI CELEBRATES CHINESE CERAMICS OF THE SONG DYNASTY (960 to 1279 AD) Principal wares of the Song period from a private collection 8 to 29 May 2015, London Eskenazi will present an exhibition of 30 important ceramics of the Song Dynasty from 8 to 29 May 2015 in London. The ceramics are from a highly distinguished private collection and represent almost all the principal wares of the period, widely recognised as a highpoint for ceramic art. The Song Dynasty (960-1279 AD) was a golden age in China. Great prosperity led to huge social and economic changes, and intellectual and technological advances that shaped Chinese culture and politics for centuries to follow. It was during this time that China introduced the first printed banknotes and the use of gunpowder. The ceramics of the period reached a peak with advances in design, decoration, glaze and firing techniques. Song ceramics were revered and copied as early as the 15th century within China and have continued to influence design worldwide into the 21st century, not least the Studio and Art Pottery movements in the West, of the 19th and 20th centuries. Ostensibly simple tea-bowls with plain forms and glazes have been treasured in Japan for hundreds of years as Important Cultural Art Objects. The exhibition in May will offer a fascinating insight into the history of the enduring international popularity of these Chinese wares, with examples previously owned by many of the most celebrated western collectors of the 20th century, including Lord Cunliffe, Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Clark, Johannes Hellner and Alfred Schoenlicht.

These were featured in a recent temporary display of around 30 Numbered Jun pieces at Harvard Art Museums [Adorning the Inner Court: Jun ware for the Chinese Palace] during the summer of 2017. Outside of Asia, the Harvard Art Museums has one of the largest collections of Numbered Jun in the world. Background Jun ware is the name for a well-known and highly appreciated class of glazed stoneware originating from Henan Province in northern China, from the North Song (907-1127) to early Ming (1368 - 1694) dynasties. Jun can be divided into three sub-categories: Classic, Splashed and Numbered Jun: unadorned “Classic” blue Jun ware was first produced in the late 10th century, with “Splashed” Jun ware (decorated with splashes of copper pigment producing purple-red tones) from the 12th century. These everyday objects were made in large quantities. Figure 1. Left: Classic Jun dish (Acc. No. 1942.185.74). Right: Splashed Jun ware dish (Acc.

  • Visitor's Guide
    VISITOR’S GUIDE INTRODUCTION Ceramics have transformed the world. For thousands of years, hu- mans have shaped and fired clay into practical, social, artistic, and ideo- logical objects that can be found in almost every culture around the globe. Important social and scientific information imbedded in manufacturing techniques and decorative motifs of ceramics has been passed on for generations, exchanged between cultures, and has revolutionized people’s way of life. This exhibition highlights the Art Museum’s ceramic collection which spans six continents and six thousand years. Looking through the lens of cultural and technological influences and exchanges, this showcase seeks to reveal the depth and diversity of the collection and the power these wares possess in shaping our functional, social, and esthetic lives. The Potter’s Tale: Contextualizing 6,000 Years of Ceramics Mount Holyoke College Art Museum Curated by Aaron F. Miller, Assistant Curator of Visual and Material Culture Yingxi Lucy Gong, Art Museum Advisory Board Fellow This exhibition is made possible by the Susan Davenport Page 1931 and Margaret Davenport Page Fales 1929 Art Fund. Technology & Production As the fragmentary pieces in this case demonstrate, there are three primary types of ceramics: earthenware, stoneware, and porcelain. These categories differ based upon both the clay and the temperatures at which the vessels are fired in the kiln. Earthenware is fired at the lowest tempera- tures, and as a result, is the most porous and susceptible to cracking. The higher temperatures used for stoneware and porcelain also require specific varieties of clays and other minerals to allow the process of vitrification to occur, in which the silica in the clay becomes glass.
