Characterized by its elegant \"pear-shaped\" body, slender neck, and flared rim, this form reached a peak of refined simplicity during the Song Dynasty (960–1279).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis specific antique vase is a prime example of Henan blackware, likely produced in the northern kilns of China. The vessel is covered in a thick, lustrous dark glaze that often transitions between deep black and rich brown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA standout feature of this particular piece is its iridescent sheen. Depending on the angle of light, the surface can reveal a mesmerizing \"oil-spot\" or \"partridge feather\" effect, showcasing subtle shifts of metallic blue, rust-red, and charcoal. This visual depth was highly prized, as it turned a functional object into a piece of contemplative art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe unglazed base reveals a buff-colored, coarse-textured clay. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe thick glaze ends in a characteristic \"dripped\" or uneven line near the foot. This behavior is common in Song Dynasty blackwares, where the high-viscosity glaze pools before reaching the base during firing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWeight is 1354 gr.\u003cbr\u003eHeight is 24 cm.\u003cbr\u003eWidth is 17 cm. \u003cbr\u003eDiameter of the rim is 10cm.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"le chateau shop @ chateau trebesice","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56496822583622,"sku":null,"price":20000.0,"currency_code":"CZK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/5980\/1414\/files\/WhatsAppImage2026-02-16at11.33.08_4.jpg?v=1777885681","url":"https:\/\/lechateaushop.eu\/products\/rare-partridge-feather-glaze-yuhuchunping-vase-song-dynasty-northern-blackware","provider":"le chateau shop   @ chateau trebesice","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
