Description
Ancient Southeast Asia, Northeastern Thailand, Ban Chiang culture, ca. 3rd to 1st century BCE. A wonderful pottery jar boasting a graceful silhouette adorned with mesmerizing, abstract decoration. Sitting upon a discoid foot, the vessel presents a slender body that broadens to a rounded shoulder and flared rim. Scrolling linear designs embellish the body, neck, and rim, with a horizontal band of ovoid and undulating motifs just above the wide foot, which is additionally decorated in starburst striations. A fabulous example of Ban Chiang pottery! Size: 6.8" Diameter x 8.6" H (17.3 cm x 21.8 cm)
