The body is slightly thin, covered entirely with a blue glaze that has a powdery green hue, the glaze layer is thick and lustrous, elegant and substantial. The glaze surface naturally exhibits crackle patterns that intertwine in all directions, and the edges and corners reveal the purple-gray body due to the thin glaze, which is uniquely characteristic. The mouth and folded shoulder are designed in an eighteen-petal flower shape, with clear and well-proportioned vertical pleats from the neck, body to the foot, the lines are smooth and neat, exuding a simple and elegant effect. The foot is fully glazed, with a recessed flat bottom, showing ten support nail marks, revealing a black-brown body color. The overall shape is neat and novel, and the glaze color is elegant and refined, making it a rare piece of Song Dynasty official kiln porcelain. Since the late sixth century, after Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty established diplomatic relations with the Persian Sassanian Empire, trade between China and Central Asia and Inner Mongolia became frequent, and the local gold and silverware was transmitted eastward, deeply favored by the nobles of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. In the mid to late Tang Dynasty, gold and silverware became widely popular in many curved petal shapes, also initiating the trend of ceramics imitating gold and silverware; in the Liao Dynasty, gold and silver sheets were hammered into floral shapes, emphasizing the curvature of the objects, making the mouth and edge protrude and recede, the overall shape resembling a blooming flower, which reflected in porcelain production slightly later in the Five Dynasties with white porcelain and Yue kiln celadon, and continued into various kilns of the Northern and Southern Song Dynasties. However, such creatively designed multi-faceted straight-neck bottles are extremely rare. Notable examples from museum collections include two Southern Song official kiln powder blue multi-faceted straight-neck bottles excavated from the "Wang Shixian Family Tomb" in the East of Xujiaping, Zhang County, Dingxi City, Gansu Province in 1972, regarded as the most precious items of the Wang family tomb, currently housed in the Gansu Provincial Museum and Zhang County Museum respectively (note), both with shapes and glaze colors very similar to this piece, making for a good comparison, both being rare fine products from the Song Dynasty official kiln. Additionally, the National Palace Museum in Taipei holds a Southern Song official kiln celadon chrysanthemum-shaped plate, which has a floral mouth shape, burn marks at the bottom, and features revealing black-gray clay at the support points, very similar to this piece, which can serve as a reference. During the early Republic of China, Xu Zhiheng wrote in "Yin Liu Zhai Shuo Ci": "In a superior era, culture is esteemed, and official kilns follow models closely. The essence gathers from all seas, supplying millions of taels." This is a praise for the porcelain of the Song Dynasty official kiln. The official kiln, as one of the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty, is distinguished as "old official" and "new official." The "old official" refers to the Northern Song official kiln, established in the first year of the reign of Emperor Huizong of Song (1101), due to Emperor Zhao Ji's unique aesthetic, at that time the tribute porcelain could not meet his high artistic aesthetic demands, so the best production techniques from Ru porcelain and Kaifeng Dong kiln and other kiln systems were introduced, directly established by the central government; the "new official" refers to the Southern Song official kiln. After the Northern Song's demise, the Song court moved south and established its capital in Lin'an, to meet the needs for royal sacrifices, dining, display, and gifts; kilns for producing royal tribute porcelain were established under the "remnants of the old capital's regulations." According to records from the Southern Song's Ye Zhi in "Tan Zhai Bi Heng" and Gu Wenjian in "Fu Xuan Za Lu": "During the Xuan Zheng period (Zheng He period), the capital established kilns for making, named official kilns. After the revival across the river, Shao Chengzhang supervised the rear garden, called Shao Bureau, inheriting the old capital's regulations, established kilns in the repair inner office, made blue vessels, named inner kiln. Chengni was used as a mold, extremely delicate, the oil color was clear, treasured by the world. Later, a new kiln was separately established in the suburbs, also called official kiln." The sites of the Southern Song official kiln are located at "Repair Inner Office Official Kiln," also known as "Inner Kiln," under Phoenix Mountain in Hangzhou; and "Suburban Altar Official Kiln," also known as "Turtle Mountain Official Kiln," in the southern suburbs of Hangzhou. Official kiln porcelain was produced by top craftsmen specifically for ancient emperors and nobles. There are both thin and thick body types, distinguished as gray-white body and black-gray body. The form of pleated decoration on the body already existed in the Tang Dynasty, while this piece features multiple pleats on both the neck and belly, with the neck pleats dense and the belly pleats sparse, representing an innovative work inheriting the Tang Dynasty's octagonal bottle style, the original prototype can be referenced from the former Qing Palace collection, the Beijing Palace Museum holds a Tang Dynasty Yue kiln secret color porcelain octagonal bottle; another piece of official kiln celadon with pleated decoration can be seen in the former Qing Palace collection, the Beijing Palace Museum holds a Song Dynasty official kiln melon-shaped straight-neck bottle, both bottles are multi-faceted long straight necks, thin bodies, with a powdery blue glaze that is lustrous, and the thin glaze reveals a purple-gray body, possessing a rustic and stable charm, extremely rare and precious. The pleated decoration technique not only overcomes the monotony of the plain surface of the object but also achieves an excellent visual effect, giving a subtle beauty of "undecorated decoration." In the Song Dynasty, commerce, industry, and technology flourished, marking a period of cultural prosperity for the literati and scholars, with painting, calligraphy, and porcelain exploring new realms. For example, the aesthetic art of the five famous kilns of porcelain: "Ru, Official, Ge, Ding, Jun," favored plain-colored wares, with a simple shape prioritized, harmonious proportions of lines, and were revered as "classics." This kind of elegant aesthetic is exemplified by the Southern Song official kiln celadon chrysanthemum-shaped plate held by the National Palace Museum in Taipei, the former Qing Palace collection, the Beijing Palace Museum holds a Song Dynasty official kiln sunflower petal plate, and this Song Dynasty official kiln powder blue multi-faceted straight-neck bottle. Although their shapes vary individually, the techniques are very similar, all entirely glazed, with bottom support nail marks, the glaze surface densely covered with crackle patterns, resembling an irregular spider web interwoven, also called "hundred scraps," a masterpiece of the official kiln porcelain that pursues a just-right simple aesthetic, showcasing the peak of porcelain firing art. Song Dynasty official kiln fine porcelain is renowned for its simple and exquisite shapes, and elegant and soft tones, making porcelain enthusiasts flock to it, yet its existing quantity is scarce, consistently esteemed in the international market. For example, at an auction at Sotheby's Hong Kong on April 11, 2008, item number 2601, a Southern Song official kiln powder blue paper-wrapped bottle sold for HKD 67,527,500. As the circulation decreases, it becomes increasingly sought after, creating remarkable value for such fine Song porcelain. During Japan's Kamakura period, approximately the same as China's Song and Yuan periods, exquisite Jiangnan porcelain produced in coastal areas such as Zhejiang and Fujian became the main characters in maritime ceramic trade, primarily collected by the royal family, temples, shinto shrines, the shogunate, or wealthy merchants; by the early twentieth century, with European and American powers entering China, various archaeological excavations commenced, many previously unknown ancient relics and historical artifacts were unearthed successively. Around 1920 to 1930, Mi Nezumi, the Japanese consul in Hangzhou, collected a large number of ceramic shards and kiln tools known as "Mi Nezumi pottery shards" from the Southern Song official kiln sites of "Under the Suburban Altar" and "Repair Inner Office," reigniting the craze for Southern Song official kiln pieces. The Southern Song official kiln powder blue multi-faceted straight-neck bottle is a rare official kiln fine porcelain highly favored in Japan, purchased by the Japanese Yōzō Trading Company in February of the third year of the Taisho era (1914), later collected by president Jukutei Kenken as a treasured secret until now. Upon close observation, this piece features multiple pleats on both the neck and belly, with pleats arranged in a sparse yet orderly manner, the mouth and shoulder slightly uneven with floral tooth-like shapes, the glaze color is serene and lustrous, resembling the texture of fine jade, and the entire piece is well-preserved, with excellent condition, making it extremely precious.
