(7.9 x 8.41 cm), Kan-chou ware Stoneware with combed and appliqué decoration and brown glaze, China, 12th-13th century, Distinctly formed jars, consisting of footless globular containers with short, vertical necks decorated with bosses and a thick, rolled-lip rim are associated with the Qili kilns at Kanzhou in Jiangxi province. While these unique jars vary in their size, their use of 'willow-basket' marking, and glazed versus unglazed exteriors all have brown-glazed interiors. Because they range in size from small to large, these jars are often called 'rice measures' in English, but their exact function remains unknown. Basket-weave designs were evident by the eleventh century in both porcelain and stoneware. The best known willow-basket jars, however, are the brown-glazed variety like this datable to the late Song and Yuan dynasties (13th-14th century).Bottle 10th-11th century.

Eastern Mediterranean, from the 1st-2nd century.Hexagonal Jug with Handles 6th-mid-7th century Byzantine The designs on this jug are upside down, errors that likely resulted from mass production.These vessels were made for Jews and Christians, possibly as tokens for pilgrims visiting the holy sites in Jerusalem or for use in burial rites. They appear to have been mass-produced in a single workshop, since the vessels for the two religions closely resemble each other in shape and style and differ only in the symbols decorating them. The Jewish vessels depict the menorah (candelabrum), shofar (ram's horn), incense shovel, and lulav (palm branch). The Christian vessels are decorated with several types of crosses. The relief designs were produced by blowing molten glass into a mold.. Hexagonal Jug with Handles 469065ACEITERA - S XX ARTE POPULAR. Location: ALFARERIA. LA BISBAL. GERONA.
