This celadon jarlet of globular form has a short neck and an everted rim. It is covered in a crackled olive-green glaze.Longquan celadons were produced in myriad forms and were hugely popular in both domestic and overseas markets. This bowl was an export ware that was shipped from South China to the Philippines.The production of celadons in Longquan probably arose after the Yue kilns declined in importance probably around the 10th century. The potters in Longquan did not want to see the greenware tradition of the south die and started to produce celadons in much the same genre.
