Chinese Tang Dynasty Sancai Glazed Pottery Lady +Oxford TL Test SALE

This elegant pottery figure of a lady was made during the Tang Dynasty (AD 618 - 906). The lady wears flowing robes and stands alert with hands clasped together across her chest, her head looking very slightly to her left. It is made from a cream-coloured pottery that is relatively highly-fired. The body is coated in finely-crackled green and amber glazes while the head and face have been cold painted with black and white pigments.

It is of a good size with a height of 27.5 cm. Condition is very good with just faint traces of a possible repair at the neck.

As with many of our finer and rarer pieces, we have had this figure tested by Oxford Authentications, the only testers of ancient pottery accepted by all major dealers, auction rooms and museums worldwide, confirming the date of manufacture as "between 900 and 1500 years ago". We show the Thermoluminescence Analysis Report that will accompany this figure.
