- Lot Description
East Asia, Japan, Middle Jomon period, ca. 2000 to 1000 BCE. A large, deep, conical urn made using the coil method, the clay mixed by the woman who made it (women produced all ceramics in this culture) with adhesive materials like mica, lead, fibers, and crushed shells. She would then smooth the interior and exterior and create cord-like motifs around the exterior, many of which can still be seen here, and for which this enigmatic culture is named - "Jomon" means "cord pattern" in Japanese. An applied, rope-like strip of clay is just under the slightly rolled out rim. Jomon pottery is some of the oldest ever made, and much of it has a similar form as this example: "fukabachi," deep bowls or jars. The flattened base indicates that it is probably from the early Middle Jomon period. Size: 10.375" W x 12" H (26.4 cm x 30.5 cm)
