During the Jin dynasty, Yaozhou kilns began to increasingly produce ceramics with a bluish-white glaze (called yuebai or moon-white). This teabowl is a typical specimen. It has an yuebai finish inside and out, with a particularly vitreous texture and luster. The vessel is broad-bellied, and its lip is very slightly curved inwards. The deep, rounded belly rests on a round foot. Overall, a decorous design with a classical elegance; the workmanship is excellent.
