{"product_id":"antique-southeast-ceramics-30","title":"WIDE-MOUTHED BLACK POTTERY \/ EARTHENWARE \/ JAR, Ban Chiang, with incised lines, With wooden box, Ancient（3rd–12th centuries）","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a Ban Chiang black-ware wide-mouthed jar. Its characteristic form comprises a broadly flaring rim, a body set off by a pronounced constriction, and a lower section that tapers into a foot-like base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe surface is predominantly black-gray, with a whitish, ashen patina remaining around the rim. From the body up to just below the rim, comb-like incised lines and geometric motifs encircle the vessel, with earth deposits embedded in the black ground. The patterns read less as applied ornament than as an integral part of the vessel's relief.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe upper section opens shallowly with a wide mouth, while the lower part is tightly constricted, producing a silhouette that from the side is almost goblet-like. Among Ban Chiang pottery, it contrasts markedly with the red-painted jars: the subdued surface characteristic of black pottery and the coarseness of the incised lines are clearly evident.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is an old hairline crack at the rim, and abrasion, soil deposits, fine scratches, and areas of discoloration on the body and interior. As this is an old earthenware piece, please review the photographs to confirm its condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA wooden box is included.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ROCANIIRU COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52776665284889,"sku":null,"price":140000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/9911\/1193\/files\/2026070617118.jpg?v=1783324723","url":"https:\/\/rcnir.com\/en\/products\/antique-southeast-ceramics-30","provider":"入蘆花（ロカニイル）","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
