About the Item

A rich, dark brown glaze coats the gently tapered form of this late 19th-century kitchen jar. As evidenced by the glazed interior, the jar was once used daily in a Qing-dynasty kitchen for fermenting foods and condiments. The wide-mouth jar stands tall upon a slightly flared base and features two strap handles surmounted by a thick rim along the opening. The thick, dark glaze has an opaque finish and is smooth to the touch, textured only slightly by the banded surface of the ceramic form. Additional Dimensions: Diameter of opening: 8".
