About the Item
Shi Jie Weng’s Purple Jun Jar conveys grandeur and authority. The vessel is tall and solid, with rounded shoulders, a slightly contracted mouth, and a high domed lid, creating a form that is both elegant and commanding. Covered entirely in purple Jun glaze, its surface flows between deep violet-blue and brilliant rose-red, producing natural gradients that shimmer with restrained brilliance.
Jun glazes, renowned since the Song dynasty for the phrase “one color into the kiln, ten thousand hues out,” are famously difficult to achieve. Through modern mastery of kiln firing, Weng captures both the mystery and radiance of this glaze, transforming an ancient technique into a contemporary expression. The jar not only demonstrates technical excellence but also carries meanings of nobility and protection, giving rise to its name. It stands as a remarkable fusion of classical spirit and modern artistry.
