Eastern Han Dynasty Terracotta Barn Workshop, China '206BC - 220AD' Ex-Museum
Located in San Pedro Garza Garcia, Nuevo Leon
Slab pottery constructed barn workshop having a peaked roof – open walled form with a mechanical pounder and a large round covered storage container. Light blue-green mottled glazed surface with some iridescence patina to the glaze.

Models like this one were made to represent everything from simple goat or pig pens to the most elaborate towers and palaces. Because very few ancient Chinese buildings have survived intact, these models, along with descriptions from ancient texts, give a good representation of what the buildings might have looked like.
This fantastic piece is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.
Burial figurines of graceful dancers, mystical beasts, and everyday objects reveal both how people in early China approached death and how they lived. Since people viewed the afterlife as an extension of worldly life, these figurines, called mingqi, sometimes referred as “spirit utensils” or “vessels of ghosts” disclose details of routine existence and provide insights into belief systems over a thousand-year period.

Cizhou Lotus Carved Jar, Song-Yuan dynasty
Located in seoul, KR
This jar features a carved design, which is typical of Cizhou ware. It has a creamy white and brown color scheme, and the prominent decoration of lotus flower, which is a common motif in Chinese art and culture, symbolizing purity and enlightenment.
The carving technique involves coating the vessel with a layer of white slip (liquid clay), then carving away parts of it to create the design, revealing the darker clay body beneath. This technique allows for a strong contrast between the background and the carved motif.
Period : Song-Yuan Dynasty
Type : Jar
Medium : Cizhou Ware
Size : 21.5 cm(Height), 11cm(Mouth Diameter)
Provenance : Acquired in 1999, Hongkong
* Cizhou Ware
