Yuanlongquan Kiln Blue Glazed Brown Colored Plum Vase, Collection of Shenzhen Museum

The bottle body is exquisite, with a small mouth, short neck, ample shoulders, gradually converging from the belly to the bottom, and shallow circular feet. The bottle seat has round lips and flat folds, with three small holes on the neck. The seat body has three floral window shaped voids, and four small feet are placed at the bottom of the seat. The bottle body and bottle holder can be moved for loading and unloading. The continuous seated plum vase first appeared in the Song Dynasty and is one of the bottle styles that were first burned in the Song Dynasty. During the Yuan Dynasty, plum wine bottles had wider shoulders and fuller shapes, which were not as slender as those of the Song Dynasty. They were often used as wine vessels. The body of the connected plum vase is thick and fine, with a green glaze throughout the body. The glaze color is blue with a yellowish tint, and there are ice cracks on the glaze surface.
