- Lot Description
**Originally Listed At $1500**
Ancient Central Asia, ca. late 2nd to early 1st millennium BCE. A gorgeous hand-built pottery jar decorated with dark-brown pigment atop a cream-slipped ground. The acorn-shaped vessel has a round, drop-form body atop a tapering conical base, a sloping shoulder with a corseted neck, and a flared rim with a thick lip. The interior of the rim is lined with several small dots, and the neck is decorated with concentric ladder-form bands. Five intricately-detailed acanthus leaves that surround the shoulder and lower body enclose several small crosses above a wide checkerboard-patterned strip. The entire composition is coated in a colorless glaze which has preserved the original coloration beneath. Size: 3.75" Diameter x 6" H (9.5 cm x 15.2 cm); 6.3" H (16 cm) on included custom stand.
This piece has been tested using thermoluminescence (TL) analysis and has been found to be ancient and of the period stated. A full report will accompany purchase.
Provenance: private East Coast, USA collection; ex-Joe Gerena Fine Arts, New York, USA, acquired in the 1990s
