A Chinese, straw glazed, ewer with splashed decoration to one side; Tang dynasty. Though a number of kilns produced similar ewers during the Tang dynasty, the conical spout and discreet pattern of chevrons, beneath the glaze, would point to it being a product of the Shouzhou kilns in Anhui province.
Dimensions; 19.5 cm tall.
Condition; In generally good condition, with age related wear. Notably, there is wear and abradation to the rim, and an associated hairline crack to the neck. There are a couple of notable chips to the foot.
