Chinese Yunnan Lobed Pot, c. 1800

About the Item

Cloaked in a beautifully irregular brown slip finish, this 19th-century earthenware pot was charged with the humble task of storing dry goods in a Qing dynasty kitchen. The lobed pot has a round form with a narrow base and a tall neck flanked by two small strap handles. Fluid, all-over ribbed designs stretch across the surface of the jar, a utilitarian texture that provides additional exterior grip. The jar has a quiet beauty, patterned by rhythmic grooves to enliven its modest, provincial construction. The chiseled surface of the pot has weathered with time, developing subtle color variation and adding rich character to the terra cotta. Additional Dimensions: Diameter of Opening: 5.25" Diameter of Base: 5.75"

  • 1800s Large Italian Fig Pot
    Located in Roma, IT
    Found in Southern Italy, this exquisite and unusual green pot made in the late 1800s was originally used to preserve dried figs. More commonly seen in a cream ceramic, this particular piece is an extraordinary green colour due to its copper and iron oxide glaze. This extravagant copper and iron oxide green was usually used for details on ceramics due to its extremely high cost. These green pots are very rare and difficult to find, we are lucky that our friends in Southern Italy salvaged...
