The name Megarian was first given to this type of mold-made relief bowl in the late nineteenth century, because some of the first known examples were said to have come from the city of Megara. It has since been demonstrated that bowls of this type, which were produced at a number of different centers, originated in Athens in the third quarter of the third century B.C..

(8.57 x 11.91 x 11.91 cm) (overall), Tz'u-chou style ware Stoneware with black glaze and russet markings, China, 12th century, This jar of 'lotus bud' form rests on a wide, unglazed, knife-cut foot rim revealing the buff-colored stoneware from which it is potted. Faint finger grooves by the potter can be detected where the black glaze has collected on the encircling ridges. Ceramics glazed all over in dark brown or black presented a challenge to the decorator and a variety of innovative techniques were devised to enliven these dark wares. In this example, an iron-rich glaze was dotted over the original layer and then splashed with five large spots. During the firing, this second glaze matured to a deep russet providing an abstract pattern and exquisite contrast in color. During the Northern Song (960-1127) and Jin dynasties (1115-1234), this type of ware was produced at Cizhou type kilns in Henan, Hebei and Shandong provinces.Pottery ointment jar, white shard, internally glazed yellow, ointment jar pot holder soil find ceramic earthenware glaze lead glaze, hand turned glazed baked Pottery ointment white shard internal yellow glazed on stand with light soul.
