520 2 |a Ding ware was produced in Hebei province, northern China, and is noted for its refined and pure white body. The most highly regarded examples, often with boldly carved decoration under an ivory glaze, date from the Song dynasty. Black or brown-glazed examples are among the rarest of Chinese ceramics, and complete vessels are rarer still. This unblemished bowl must have been a star piece in the former Imperial collection. It has the same fine conical shape as its ivory-glazed counterparts, and the same pure white body, visible on the unglazed foot. The glossy black glaze is paler towards the rim, which, like the unglazed rims of white Ding bowls, was fitted with a metal rim. The interior is now plain, but may have originally had gold leaf decoration.
