Bowl with Carved Design of Lotus, White Porcelain 白磁刻花蓮華文鉢はくじこっかれんげもんはち

Description

大変薄作りの深鉢で、外側には三重に鎬（しのぎ）蓮弁を浮き彫り風に施し、内面には蓮の葉を線刻で伸びやかに表す。定窯では、碗や鉢を量産するために、口の部分を下にし、匣鉢（さやばち）と呼ばれる陶製の容器の中で幾つも重ねて焼成する。これは伏せ焼きと呼ばれる方法で、釉着を防ぐため、口は、釉薬を剥ぎ取り無釉にする。また、定窯に特徴な象牙色の肌は、窯の燃料が薪ではなく、石炭であるため、炎が高く上がらず、酸化気味に焼成されることに起因すると考えられている。
