Very nice examples Charll and George, showing different types of this fascinating glaze.
Dear George, the foot may look fully glazed because of the surface brownish burnt that usually has some shine, but it isn't. Glaze edges are clearly visible in your picture.
Pieces fully glazed should show the stilt, or support, marks. On porcelain, very few ware is fired on supports while it is more common on Japanese ware.
