Green-glazed globular jug, Tang Chinese school, 7th–9th century Fine terracotta with green lead glaze. Measures 26 x 15.5 cm. Large jug with a globular body and a wide, slightly flared mouth, covered in an intense green glaze with deep reflections and fine surface craquelure. The vitreous glaze partially reveals the ceramic body in the lower section, where traces of firing and reserves characteristic of Tang Dynasty kilns are visible. The saturated green color, achieved using copper oxide, gives the surface a luminous, watery quality of great visual refinement. The clean lines and volumetric balance demonstrate the understated elegance of funerary ceramics from the Tang Dynasty, a period of extraordinary technical and commercial flourishing in China. The piece conveys a sense of serene monumentality reinforced by the continuity of the glaze and the geometric purity of the form. 26 x 15.5 cm. Lot located in an international warehouse (within the EU). Intra-EU shipment: no import duties apply within the EU. An export permit from the country of origin may be required.
