SMALL JAR, Sue Ware / Uzukumaru, ash-glazed, Kofun Period (250–581 CE)

Small Jar (Sue Ware, Kofun Period, 3rd-7th Century).
This exceptionally rare vessel, reminiscent of a "uzukumaru" form, features a short neck adorned with a single raised band, leading to a vertically elongated body that flares at the shoulders. The jar is crafted from high-quality, pale clay, coated in an ash glaze that creates a striking contrast between the natural glaze and the ash deposits, resulting in a captivating visual landscape.

A drop-in insert for floral arrangements is included.
