[Yingge Kiln] Xiangyi - Perfect Harmony Tea Set

The foremost of the "Five Great Kilns of the Song Dynasty"—Ru Ware, renowned for its lustrous glaze that resembles congealed fat, embodying a simple elegance that was the pinnacle of Song Dynasty fashion. Ru porcelain, with its balanced iron content and carefully controlled reduction firing, results in a clay body of a fragrant grey hue. Under different light sources, the glaze shifts between sky blue and powder blue. The characteristic purple rim reveals a fascinating interplay between the clay and glaze. The large crackles on the glaze are interspersed with smaller, scale-like craquelure. As it harmonizes with the tea over time, the patterns gradually emerge, enhancing its rich luster and adding a delightful depth of character. During this period, Ru porcelain and its users formed a mutual appreciation, allowing the exquisite beauty of Ru Ware to endure. The handles and spouts of this tea set are designed for comfortable handling and smooth pouring, while the vessel is adorned with Ru ware glaze in sky blue or moon white. The glaze possesses a creamy, lustrous finish, exuding an elegant and delicate charm with exquisite detail.
