Collection: "Yunluo Star-Yohen" Bamboo-Joint Meiping (Plum Vase) by Yunzhanxuan

This piece features a deep, rustic black-blue glaze base with flawlessly rounded oil spots and partridge feather markings. Its colors are enchanting, its texture exceptional, and the glaze is rich and glossy with excellent vitrification, creating a distinct sense of fluid drape. The oil spots and partridge markings appear as golden ovals, while slender, silvery "Jade Rabbit" streaks extend vertically in pure silver.

These resemble flowing water over colorful stones in a stream, gradient in tone from top to bottom, and shimmer with a moonlight-like silver radiance—elegant, delicate, and possessing a strong metallic mirror-like effect. Under sunlight, it glows with golden, silver, and blue reflections, making it captivating in both natural and indoor light.

The coloration of the iridescent oil spots, partridge markings, and silvery streaks differs slightly from that of typical Yohen teacups: rather than merely shifting with light, the silvery streaks and spots are intrinsically colorful.

The purple, green, blue, and other colored patterns on the "Yunluo Star-Yohen" Bamboo-Joint Meiping (Plum Vase) are exceptionally difficult to achieve in firing. They vividly recreate the fine fur patterns of a rabbit and the varied spots on a partridge’s feathers. This naturally formed, colorful beauty is expressed to perfection in this rare Jian Zhan masterpiece. It stands as a superior work among heritage vases, with few comparable specimens in existence.

The vase reveals a dark brown iron body, and the foot has been trimmed with naturally executed knife work. The base is stamped with the mark of Ye Yiyun, making it highly collectible.

This extraordinarily beautiful Jian Kiln Yohen-glazed "Yunluo Star-Yohen" Bamboo-Joint Meiping (Plum Vase) exhibits a gradient distribution of oil spots—dense near the rim and gradually thinning toward the base. The partridge spots on the surface gleam like inlaid gems, while the intervals between them resemble fluid strokes of a brush saturated with rich oil paints.

Under sunlight, it emits subtle hints of blue, cyan, and purple—truly magnificent! The oil spots and partridge markings resemble a meteor shower: one, two... streaking across the sky, their faint rays vanishing into the distance. Under the influence of intense kiln fire, their essence has been forever fused into the dark glaze of this remarkable vase.

The "Yunluo Star-Yohen" Bamboo-Joint Meiping (Plum Vase), with its exposed dark brown iron body and naturally trimmed foot bearing Ye Yiyun’s mark, is an object of exceptional collector value.
