Chinese Tang Dynasty Lushan Kiln Phosphatic Brown Glaze Tripod Coupe
SOLD
Chinese Tang dynasty (618-907) Lushan kiln tripod stoneware coupe with two thin upright handles covered entirely in a dark brown speckled glaze apart from the lower part of the unglazed feet. A large phosphatic splash is on both the front and back. Small bosses are spread around the circumference of the widest part of the body to imitate bronze examples. 6 1/4” diameter by 4 1/4" high. Very good overall condition except for one foot which has an old repair where it was re-secured to the body. It is barely visible to the naked eye, but the adhesive is visible under black light. From the estate of Gerhard Lohmeier, a Diplomat at the German Embassy in Beijing from 1985 to 1989.
