About this work
This vase was dusted with wood ash. During firing the glaze turned an olive green in these places while the brown-burnt biscuit of the rest of the vessel was coated only with kiln gloss. This type of early green-glazed stoneware was made solely in southeastern China, from where it was widely distributed.
