A Chinese Han Dynasty green glazed earthenware vase
Eastern Han Dynasty (25n220 CE)
Appears unmarked
The squat globular vase with widely flaring trumpet neck covered overall with a thick green-glaze
5" H x 4" Dia.

Overall good condition with shelf wear, scattered minor scuffs, scratches, and inherent firing flaws commensurate with age. As well, this is likely an excavated piece, so it has rubbed wear throughout and has patinated to an even allover iridescent finish. No evidence of repairs or restorations under blacklight. Small cork feet later added to the underside. Condition reports are offered as a courtesy and are typically published in Moran's catalogue or can be made available upon request. The absence of a condition report does not imply that an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of others. Buyers are responsible for determining to their own satisfaction the true nature and condition of any lot prior to bidding. Though buyers are not legally required to inspect lots prior to purchase, failure to do so may constitute a waiver of complaint that an item was not delivered in a condition equal to the existent condition at the auction.
