A Cizhou Blackish Brown Glazed Stoneware Foliate Jar, Northern Song Dynasty
About the Item
The jar is covered with a deep, warm blackish-brown glaze. The glaze is smooth and even, with a soft sheen.
The foliate rim has a gentle, wave-like design that gives the jar a natural and organic feel. The body features vertical incised lines that expose the light-colored clay beneath the dark glaze, creating a clear contrast. These lines highlight the jar's rounded shape and add a sense of dynamic move.
The unglazed base shows the creamy, light-toned stoneware typical of Cizhou kilns, offering insight into its firing technique and age.

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.
