🌟 Product Details

πŸ†” Inventory CodeINV2779 Ⓜ️ MaterialEarthenware with Traces of Sancai Lead Glaze 🏳️ OriginChina πŸ›οΈ PeriodMing Dynasty – 15th–16th Century πŸ…‚ SubjectMiniature pottery storage jar or food vessel with twin lug handles and subtle glaze drips in amber and green tones, likely part of a mingqi (tomb furnishing) set. 🏷️ MarkedUnmarked πŸ“œ DescriptionThis small Ming Dynasty earthenware jar features a globular body, short neck, and twin applied lug handles at the shoulder. The surface shows traces of green and amber sancai glaze with burial encrustation, typical of Tang tomb pottery.

Such miniature jars were commonly used as mingqi β€” symbolic vessels placed in tombs to provide for the spirit of the deceased in the afterlife. The restrained form and faint glaze trails suggest an early Ming or transitional production, displaying both utility and artistic balance.

Collector’s Notes: The surface retains a natural burial patina, indicating genuine excavation. Its small, balanced proportions make it an appealing and historically important example of early Ming funerary ceramics. πŸ” Condition

GOOD β­β­β­β­β˜† (4/5) – Surface wear and mineral encrustation from burial; intact body and handles. Please review the photos carefully for more details.
