This piece is a valuable record of the stoneware firing technique in the Southern Song period (1127-1279). A small bowl from the Jian kilns in Fujian province, in a deep black colour with a constellation of small brown marks, is still stuck to its firing saggar. The saggars could be piled up thanks to their conical base, enabling a large quantity of pieces to be fired at the same time and an even distribution of the heat. Photographs in situ show close similarities with this piece.
