About this piece

Four little ears on its shoulder, and a two-tone coat.

Chinese potters made this pottery vessel in the middle to late 19th century. Tall storage jars of this type were commonly used for oil, wine, grain or sauces, and the small loop handles allowed a cord to be passed through. The upper half is covered in a brown glaze that ends in a clear line around the belly, below which the buff clay is left bare. Four small lugs sit on the shoulder, and faint throwing rings circle the body.

About 15 inches tall and 9 wide. Excellent for branches, bad for secrets.
