Jun Ware
Jun ware is a type of celadon. The use of straw ash in the glaze bestows its unique blue glaze suffused with white. The original Jun ware was created at the Jun kilns of Henan in the northern Song Dynasty. However the method was imitated at many other kilns because the ceramics became very popular. Ceramic ware of a similar style are called ‘Jun ware’ in the present age because so many imitations were made for so long all over China.
