- Lot Description
East Asia, Japan, Kofun period, ca. 4th to early 6th century CE. A hand-built pottery bottle of a spherical form with one flattened side meant to stabilize the vessel when suspended from its suspension loops. The flared neck and thick rim were perhaps fitted with a plug lid at one time to mitigate any spillage of the contents held within. The obverse walls are uniformly burnished to create a decorative bullseye motif. Accompanying the bottle is a 20th century wooden storage box lined with black and gold silk bearing sprawling vines and delicate floral motifs. Lucite display stand for photography purposes only. Size (bottle): 7.5" W x 9.7" H (19 cm x 24.6 cm); (storage box): 9.1" L x 9.1" W x 9" H (23.1 cm x 23.1 cm x 22.9 cm)
