Chinese Song / Yuan Dynasty Glazed Stoneware Jar - ShipwreckI have been collecting for many years now, mostly Chinese / Japanese ceramics, but also various other pieces. It is time to thin out my collection to free up some space.This wide but shallow stoneware jar was made during the 13th - 14th century. The outer surface is coated in a finely-crackled yellowish-brown glaze, save for the flat base that remains unglazed, revealing the pale grey body. It has been recovered from a shipwre...ck and sea-growths still adhere to the unglazed inside surface. Diameter 10.5 cm (4 inches). There is surface wear and two cracks that spread across the shoulder, although the jar is perfectly stable and is free from restoration or repair. I am showing detailed photos of this piece so please look carefully and if you have any questions please ask before you bid, not afterwards !All my items are being sold by auction so please do not ask for a "buy it now" price.****** There is no need to wait until the last minute - if you like this item, please place your bid now. *******All items will be securely packed and sent by a tracked delivery service, probably on the same day as payment, but certainly within two days of payment being received. I can do combined packing & postage if more than one item is bought at the same time, so this can be a real saving.
