Description

large antique Chinese earthenware Martaban dragon jar of brown and mustard glaze depicting a pair of celestial dragons in pursuit of the flaming pearl of wisdom. Such large ceramic jars were used for storing all sorts of liquids, however the Dragon Jar was known as the vessel of the 100-year old egg (an auspicious delicacy somewhat unfamiliar to the western palette). There is a long history of such jars having been made in the Shiwan kilns of Guangzhou in Southern China. Mid-1800s, large antique Chinese Earthenware Martaban Dragon Jar. Also known as an old glazed stoneware Chinese 'egg pot' or planter from Southern China. The pots have a traditional continuous coiling dragon wrapped around the body chasing the eternal flaming pearl. The dragon represents good luck and is carved into the outside clay before firing.
