C. AD 618-907. Tang Dynasty. Green glazed terracotta jar with lid. Of ovoid form and covered in a green glaze down to the foot rim the jar is finely potted with thin even walls and rests on a slightly flared foot surrounding the flat base. The deep forest green glaze spills onto the interior. It was not until the Tang dynasty that low-fired lead silicate glazes were revived and with renewed vitality since their origin during the Han dynasty. With novel methods of preparation that resulted in greater stability, the glazes were able to survive in pristine states, as in the present jar. Provenance: Private British collection; previously in Brian Page collection since the 1980s. Size: L:370mm / W:240mm ; 5.4kg
