Maiping Ginger Jar (1200-0331)
by Currey
The hand-thrown porcelain body of the Maiping Ginger Jar covered with a celadon crackle glaze has been baked and given a light thermic shock to create the crackled lines in the texture. Some lines on the pale green jar are darkened with real tea leaves while others are covered with black calligraphy ink to create depth in the porcelain.
