专家说明

This type of ware represents the earliest celadon ceramics in China and was made from the late Western Han till the Eastern Han Period. Similar jars were excavated in towns near Nanjing, Hangzhou and Wuhu. For a similar example see The Freer Gallery of Art, K.R. Tsiang, Glazed Stonewares of the Han Dynasty, Artibus Asiae, 1978, no. 9.
