Lot Essay

It is rare to find Yaozhou wares of this form. Compare to a Yaozhou leys jar of similar proportion in the Shaanxi Academy of Archaeology collection, illustrated in Rose Kerr, Yaozhou Wares From Museums and Art Institutes Including Yaozhou Tribute Wares, Hong Kong, 2021, no. 397.

The result of Oxford thermoluminescence test no. P120a37 (27 February 2020) is consistent with the dating of this lot.
