A SANCAI-GLAZED POTTERY TEA SET, TANG DYNASTY
China, 618-906. As part of funerary rituals, the seven cups and central jar are fixed to the circular tray having been fired together in the kiln. The glaze stops just above the short base of the tray. The emerald-green and yellow glazes are generously applied overall and are finely crackled.
Provenance:
From the estate of a notable Hong Kong family, who brought a substantial collection of ceramics, porcelains, and other Chinese works of art with them when they immigrated to Canada in the 1950s. Thence by descent within the family to the last owner.
Condition:
Good condition commensurate with age, with some firing irregularities and signs of weathering. Soil encrustations typical of objects buried for a prolonged period, chips, glaze drippings, pitting, and glaze recesses.
Weight: 1,168 g
Dimensions: Diameter 23.4 cm (tray), 6.3 cm (cups), 6.6 cm (jar)
