Özet

Temmoku glazes have been one of the most important glazes ever since discovered. The prodoction of temmoku glazes began with the discovery of black and brown glazes during the Sung (960-1279 A.D.) dynasties of China. During Sung dynasty Jian Temmoku glazed bowls were accepted as tribute wares by the Northern Sung court, and were approved for imperial use. Meanwhile, Temmoku glazed bowls became extremly fashionable amongst Nortern Sung Society and in Buddhist monastic communities.
