SMALL JAR, Sawankhalok Ware, with handles, Middle Ages(12th–16th centuries)

Tax included.  |  Flat ¥1,000 shipping (Honshu only, large items excluded)


Pottery produced at the ancient kiln site of Sawankhalok in Thailand from the 14th century onward was imported to Japan during the Momoyama period through the early Edo period, where it was referred to as Song Hu Lu or Sun Ko Roku. It is said that tea masters of the time cherished these pieces as tea ceremony utensils. Sun Ko Roku encompasses a significant number of works inspired by the celadon and blue-and-white porcelain from the Longquan kiln of the Song and Yuan dynasties. These pieces were primarily crafted from a stoneware body with a grayish-blue glaze, iron underglaze decoration, and white slip. This particular item is a small jar adorned with twin handles, which could also serve beautifully as a flower vase.
