Description
Southeast Asia, Burma (Myanmar), ca. 14th century CE. A delightful pottery water vessel in the form of a bird standing upon an integral base. The bird’s clawed feet straddle the sides of the hollow, cylindrical base that has uneven glazing along the lower third. The bird has a plump, rounded body with a curved tail and short neck supporting the bulbous head and hooked beak. The terracotta is glazed white with a pretty jade green underglaze. The center of the bird’s back has a short neck and opening which leads to the bird's hollow interior. A charming and functional jar! Size: 7.125" L x 8.75" H (18.1 cm x 22.2 cm)
