About the Item
Chinese Celadon Funerary Jars (12th -13th Century)
Vases with lids, bird finials and four cloud-forms in high relief.
Clay: dense, dark grey; thinly potted.
Glaze: rich, lustrous bluish-green grey shading to light olive; lightly crackled. Inside also glazed, but foot rim and a ring inside the cover left bare.
Decoration: forms of a tiger, a seated deity, and a small tiger. --- in high relief above the fluted shoulder; a cloud-form on the neck.
These funerary jars, which presumably held grain, are decorated with cosmological symbols. The kittenish tiger coiling around the jar's elongated neck represents the White Tiger of the West; it would have been paired with another jar bearing the Green Dragon of the East. Other figures include. The lid is embellished with clouds and a bird, perhaps a crane, a symbol of immortality. The crackled glaze, somewhat uneven in color, is an example of Guan-type glaze made at certain kilns in Longquan.
