二、历史价值：宣德御窑与钧瓷复兴的双重见证
1. 宣德御窑的辉煌成就 明宣德（1426-1435年）为明代瓷器烧造的黄金时代，御窑厂集前代工艺之大成，创新不断。此盘虽为钧窑系，却镌刻宣德官款，印证了明代宫廷对钧瓷的重视与仿制： 官方仿钧背景：据《明实录》记载，宣德三年（1428年）朝廷命景德镇御窑厂仿烧钧窑器，以“玫瑰紫釉”为贵。此盘即为这一政策的实物见证，体现了明早期对宋代名窑的追慕与超越。
2. 款识的特殊性：宣德官窑款多见于青花瓷，钧窑刻款极为罕见。此盘款识笔法遒劲，结构严谨，与宣德青花款如出一辙，为御窑真品无疑。

钧窑技术的传承与创新
钧窑以“入窑一色，出窑万彩”的窑变釉闻名，宋代以玫瑰紫、海棠红为尊。此盘在继承宋钧精髓的基础上，融入明代审美：1. 釉色改良：天蓝底釉更显澄澈，紫红斑分布疏密有致，似泼墨山水，较宋钧更添灵动之气。
2. 工艺突破：釉层厚润而均匀，无宋代钧瓷常见的流釉瑕疵，显示明代制瓷技术的精进。

2. 增值预期：随着高古瓷市场升温，明代御窑仿钧瓷作为“官窑中的官窑”，其稀缺性与艺术性将持续推高价格，具备长期投资价值。

三、艺术价值：窑变之美与宫廷气韵的完美融合
窑变釉的奇幻魅力
此盘釉色以天蓝为基，紫红斑如云霞升腾，边缘处泛出月白色光晕，形成“红中透紫，紫中藏青”的层次感。光线流转间，釉面呈现“雨过天晴云破处”的诗意效果，堪称“钧瓷无对，窑变无双”的典范。

2. 科学断代：经热释光测年法检测，此盘烧造年代与宣德时期吻合；釉面微观分析显示，其气泡分布特征与宣德御窑瓷器一致。

Type: Open mouth, shallow belly, round feet, with a regular and elegant shape, smooth and smooth lines, fully demonstrating the solemnity of Ming Dynasty palace utensils
2、 Historical Value: Dual Witness of the Revival of Xuande Imperial Kiln and Jun Porcelain
1. The glorious achievements of Xuande Imperial Kiln
Ming Xuande (1426-1435) was the golden age of porcelain firing in the Ming Dynasty. The Imperial Kiln Factory integrated the great achievements of previous generations' craftsmanship and constantly innovated. Although this plate belongs to the Jun kiln series, it is engraved with the official seal of Xuande, which confirms the importance and imitation of Jun porcelain by the Ming court:
1. Official Jun imitation background: According to the Ming Shilu, in the third year of Xuande (1428), the court ordered Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln Factory to imitate Jun kiln ware, with "rose purple glaze" being the most expensive. This plate is a tangible witness to this policy, reflecting the early Ming Dynasty's admiration and transcendence of famous kilns from the Song Dynasty.
2. The particularity of style recognition: The Xuande official kiln style is often seen in blue and white porcelain, while the Jun kiln engraved style is extremely rare. This plate has a strong calligraphy style and rigorous structure, which is exactly the same as the Xuan De blue and white style. It is undoubtedly a genuine imperial kiln product.
2. Inheritance and Innovation of Jun Kiln Technology
Jun kiln is famous for its kiln change glaze of "one color in the kiln, ten thousand colors out of the kiln". In the Song Dynasty, rose purple and crabapple red were revered. On the basis of inheriting the essence of Song Jun, this plate incorporates Ming Dynasty aesthetics:
1. Glaze color improvement: The sky blue base glaze appears clearer, and the distribution of purple and red spots is dense and orderly, resembling a splashed ink landscape, adding more vitality than the Song Jun.
2. Technological breakthrough: The glaze layer is thick, smooth, and uniform, without the common flowing glaze defects of Jun porcelain in the Song Dynasty, demonstrating the advanced porcelain making technology of the Ming Dynasty.
3、 Artistic Value: The Perfect Fusion of the Beauty of Kiln Transformation and the Charm of the Palace
The magical charm of kiln transformed glaze
The glaze color of this plate is based on sky blue, with purple red spots rising like clouds, and a moon white halo appearing at the edges, forming a layered feeling of "red with purple, purple with hidden blue". Amidst the flow of light, the glazed surface presents a poetic effect of "after rain, clear sky, and broken clouds", which can be regarded as a model of "unparalleled Jun porcelain and unparalleled kiln transformation".
Royal style of shape and proportion
1. Exquisite size: caliber 22.5cm, bottom diameter 15cm, height 5cm, forming a visual balance of "open and stable, shallow and deep", suitable for palace decoration and practical play.
2. Line language: The mouth edge is slightly curved, the abdominal wall is slanted, the legs are well-organized, and the overall shape is like a blooming lotus flower, implying the Buddhist connotation of "purity and purity", which is in line with the cultural psychology of the Ming Dynasty court advocating auspiciousness.
4、 Collection Value: The Scarcity and Market Benchmark Status of Xuande Jun Porcelain
1. Existence and Chronological Basis
1. Rare Quantity: The Ming Dynasty imperial kiln imitations of Jun porcelain have been passed down very rarely, and those with Xuande official seals are even rarer. Currently, only the National Palace Museum, Taipei Palace Museum, and a few top collectors have similar collections in public information.
2. Scientific dating: According to the thermoluminescence dating method, the burning age of this plate coincides with the Xuande period; Microscopic analysis of the glaze surface shows that its bubble distribution characteristics are consistent with those of Xuande Imperial Kiln porcelain.
2. Auction market performance and potential
1. Reference case: In the 2021 autumn auction of Christie's in Hong Kong, a Ming Xuan De imitation Jun kiln rose purple glazed plate (without payment) was sold for HK $28930000, setting a record for Ming Dynasty imitation Jun porcelain auctions. This disc comes with official style and is well preserved, with an expected value far exceeding that of similar instruments.
2. Expectation of appreciation: With the rise of the high-end antique porcelain market, Ming Dynasty imperial kiln imitation Jun porcelain, as the "official kiln among official kilns", will continue to drive up prices due to its scarcity and artistic value, and has long-term investment value.
5、 Reason for recommendation: A must-have boutique for collecting Ming Dynasty porcelain
Historic: Xuande Official Kiln imitates Jun, witnessing the Ming court's tribute and innovation to the famous kilns of the Song Dynasty.
Artistic quality: The kiln transformed glaze is as poetic as a painting, with a dignified and elegant shape, reflecting the pinnacle of imperial aesthetics in the Ming Dynasty.
Scarcity: There are less than ten Jun kiln plates bearing the official seal of Xuande, making them a coveted "heavy artifact" for collectors.
Academic: It has important specimen value for studying the imperial kiln system of the Ming Dynasty and the development history of Jun porcelain.
Conclusion
This Jun kiln plate, made in the Xuande year of the Ming Dynasty, is considered a "treasure level" collection of Ming Dynasty porcelain due to its unique craftsmanship, imperial charm, and rarity. It is not only a witness to the glory of Xuande Imperial Kiln, but also a perfect interpretation of the spirit of "antique innovation" in the history of Chinese ceramics. For collectors, owning a Xuande Jun porcelain is equivalent to having an aesthetic dialogue spanning six hundred years and an irreplaceable cultural heritage.
