About “YuHuChunPing”
Yuhuchun first appeared in the temples of the Tang dynasty (608–917 AD) as a holy water vase. By the Song dynasty (960-1279) the form had become a popular type of wine vessel. During the Yuan dynasty (1271–1368) the shape became more refined as well as being decorated with both underglaze blue and red. This tradition continued into the Ming dynasty (1368–1644) and into the Qing dynasty (1644-1912). Today they are often referred to as "Pear Shaped vases". During the Yuan and Ming dynasties the form was further adapted by the addition of handles and spouts for wine.
