Ru kiln Gourd Bottle
Introduction:
Ru kiln porcelain, renowned as the premier treasure among the five great kilns of the Song Dynasty, holds a legendary origin. It is said that the eighth emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty, Emperor Huizong Zhao Ji, once dreamt of a mysterious sky blue hue emerging after a heavy rain. Upon waking, he penned the verse, "After the rain, the sky clears, and this color shall be created" (雨过天青云破处，这般颜色做将来), which describes the clarity and freshness of the sky after rain, and tasked artisans with producing this shade. Thus, Ru porcelain was born. Jay Chou's phrase "sky blue rain" (天青色烟雨) refers to this very porcelain. In the Song Dynasty, Ru kiln works were esteemed as precious treasures within the royal court and remain among the most valuable artifacts in Chinese art today.
Northern Song Period:
From 960 to 1127 AD, this era was a golden age of cultural and artistic achievements in Chinese history. The period saw extraordinary accomplishments in literature and art, such as the grand masterpiece "A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains" (千里江山图) by the renowned painter Wang Ximeng, which was once collected by Qing Emperor Qianlong and is now housed in the Palace Museum. In literature, poets like Su Shi, famous for "Prelude to Water Melody" (水调歌头), with the line "When will the moon be bright and clear?" (明月几时有), and his teacher Ouyang Xiu, known for "The Pavilion of the Drunken Old Man" (醉翁亭记), produced works that are still considered classics of Chinese literature. Technologically, the great inventor Bi Sheng developed movable type printing, and landscape painting flourished, with masters like Fan Kuan and Guo Xi depicting the majesty of nature in their works.
Rarity:
Ru kiln porcelain pieces are exceptionally rare. A common saying about the five great kilns of the Song Dynasty goes, "Even with a fortune, a single piece of Ru porcelain is priceless" (纵有家财万贯，不抵汝瓷一件), indicating that no amount of wealth can compare to the value of a single piece of Ru porcelain. Most surviving Ru kiln porcelains are housed in museums due to the kiln’s short production period, from the first year of Yuan You under Emperor Zhezong to the fifth year of Chong Ning under Emperor Huizong (1086-1106), making these artifacts exceedingly scarce. There are two main theories regarding their number: one from "The History of Chinese Ceramics" (
中国陶瓷史), stating fewer than a hundred pieces exist, and another from "New Discoveries of Ru Kiln" (汝窑的新发现) by the Shanghai Museum, listing 65 pieces. Among these, the Taipei National Palace Museum holds the largest collection with 21 pieces, including 11 items once collected by Emperor Qianlong, while the Beijing Palace Museum has 17 pieces.
Emperors:
The Song Dynasty spanned 319 years and saw 18 emperors. The first was Zhao Kuangyin, known as Emperor Taizu, who reigned for only 16 years and died in his early fifties. Emperor Huizong Zhao Ji (1082-1135), the eighth emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty, reigned under multiple era names: Jianzhong, Jingguo, Chongning, Daguan, Zhenghe, Chonghe, and Xuanhe. An outstanding painter and calligrapher, Huizong significantly advanced court arts and played a crucial role in the appreciation and development of Ru kiln porcelain, elevating its status in Chinese history.
Value and Condition:
The market value of porcelain has skyrocketed, with significant sales at major auction houses. Official kiln porcelains, in particular, are highly sought after and continuously set new auction records. For example, in October 2017, a Ru kiln dish sold for HK$260 million (approximately HK$294 million with commission) at Sotheby’s Hong Kong. This surge is due to the porcelain's artistic form and historical value.
This unique bottle-shaped artwork has garnered immense attention from collectors. It is in perfect condition, featuring the distinctive "crab claw" crackle pattern (蟹爪纹) unique to Ru kiln pieces, with each irregular crackle being unique. Another distinctive feature is the "fishtail" bubbles (鱼鳞纹) that cannot be replicated by modern methods. The preservation of this artwork has been meticulous, ensuring it remains in pristine condition for future generations.
