This interesting item was purchased in a lot with other grey ware pottery from the Han Dynasty of ancient China. It has painted decorations on the outer surface in red, blue, black and white.

You missed these 

This offering is for a pair of Han Dynasty tomb soldiers, one of which is extremely unique. The first soldier is NOT your typical Han Dynasty (circa 200 BC) tomb figure. This extraordinarily rare piece is quite literally one of a kind. Note the position of his hands in front of him - this is indicative of a special member of the color guard. There generally would be one "color guard" for every 100 or more of the regular infantry soldiers that you commonly see for sale in other gallerie ...click for details
