About this piece

Four little ears for a pot that likes to be carried.

Chinese potters made this vessel with four lug handles in black-glazed pottery in the 20th century. Lugged jars are commonly used for storage and carrying, since the handles help with lifting and tying down lids. The round body swells above a narrower base, with a short neck and four chunky lugs at the shoulder. The glaze is smoky black with gray highlights, and faint horizontal ridges circle the body. The surface is slightly worn and dull.

About 15 inches tall and 14 across. Has the look of a pot that has been somewhere.
