VasesCaldron 13th or 14th century French or South Netherlandish Cauldrons and cooking pots of all sizes were standard kitchen equipment of wealthy houses in which the lord was responsible for feeding the entire household and its staff. In more modest domestic circumstances, an entire meal could be cooked in one large pot by carefully wrapping the various foods and then suspending them in the pot, placing them at different levels, or adding them at different times. However, by the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, medieval cookery had become sufficiently sophisticated as to require a variety of sizes of pots even in the average household.Almost all metal cooking vessels were equipped either with legs so that they could be placed directly into the fire or with handles so that they could be suspended from the trammel. The trammel, a device from which pots and other equipment would be hung at varied heights, was standard equipment in almost every kitchen fireplace.

(21.59 × 18.42 × 18.42 cm), Stoneware, Korea, 6th century, The swollen body of this dish is supported by a tall, narrow foot decorated with thin horizontal lines. Vessels of this type are typical of stoneware produced in Gaya and Silla in southeast Korea, although it is unclear whether they were used in the home or in service to the dead. In the latter case, it would have been used in the ritual presentation of food to the deceased.Water Ewer for Rituals with Incised Parrot Design, 1100s. Korea, Goryeo period (918-1392). Stoneware with celadon glaze, incised and carved decoration; overall: 36.2 x 14 cm (14 1/4 x 5 1/2 in.). This distinctively shaped celadon vessel is a kundika.

Cast bronzeDeep Bowl with Four Projections, 2500-1500 BCE, Unknown Japanese, 21 1/4 x 22 in. (53.98 x 55.88 cm), Earthenware, Japan, 25th-15th century BCE, Japans first ceramic culture, the Jōmon (14,000-300 bce), produced strongly tactile pottery over 3,500 years ago. This lavishly decorated bowl was probably used during religious ceremonies. Its flamboyant rim, a typical feature of the middle period of Jōmon pottery, is known as the 'fire-flame' type, because the coils of clay resemble leaping flames. The word jōmon, after which the historical period is named, means 'cord markings' and derives from the distinctive patterns produced by rolling a rope-wrapped stick across the surface of the clay. The lower portion of this vessel bears these markings, together with whimsical designs carved into the surface of the clay.Glas, (possibly), c. 1000 - c. 1099 Light yellow-green vase on a foot ring with an egg-shaped body and a slender neck that runs into a wide mouth.

The inscription on this jar indicates that it was an endowment by the amir Zain alDin Yahya alUstadar, who served as majordomo during the reign of Sultan Jaqmaq (r. 1438-53) and subsequent rulers. The jar was perhaps intended for use at the mosque that he commissioned in 1444, which still stands in Cairo.. Marble Jar of Zayn al-Din Yahya Al-Ustadar. ca. 1444. Marble; carved.

While most of the examples have fluted sides and repoussé lions on their neck, the crowned harpies on the shoulder of this piece and the astrological imagery on its body heighten the auspiciousness of its ornament. Set in medallions of twisting vines terminating in rabbits' heads, each zodiac sign appears with its ruling planet, enhancing its cosmic message.

Created by artists of Perus Moche culture, the style of painting is called “fineline,” so named for the detailed compositions delicately painted in red slip (a suspension of clay and/or other colorants in water) on a white ground. Each warrior wears a helmet surmounted by a crescent-shaped finial and tied under the chin (see Sawyer, 1966: 42-23, for a rollout drawing of the painting on the vessel). The crescents likely represent actual silver or gold ornaments; one pair of combatants may sport bimetallic crescents. Two of the helmets have feathers projecting from the back. The decorations on three of the helmets mirror the pattern on the wearers cinched tunics. The belts are decorated with a teardrop-shaped motif representing an ulluchu fruit (McClelland, 2008). The warriors without bimetallic helmet crescents wear bimetallic back flaps (a type ofRitual wine vessel, anonymous, c. -1046 - c. -256  China bronze (metal)  China bronze (metal)Jug - Inconnu / UnknownPrehistory, Italy, Iron Age.
