The Story
A truly substantial piece of ancient history. This beautiful hand-thrown stoneware pot dates back to 18th-century China during the Qing Dynasty. Originally used as a functional vessel for holding soy sauce, its rich, molasses-brown glaze has developed a wonderful character over two centuries. It is a soulful, heavyweight object that brings a sense of timelessness and rustic texture to a contemporary "roost” - perfect as a standalone sculpture or for displaying large-scale statement blooms.
The Details

Heritage Note
This jar is a classic example of the functional beauty produced during the Qing Dynasty (1644–1911). These vessels were the workhorses of the Chinese kitchen, designed for extreme durability. The deep brown "Tenmoku" style glaze was chosen for its resilience and ability to preserve contents. Today, these jars are highly prized in interior design for their "Wabi-Sabi" aesthetic—the art of finding beauty in the aged, the handmade, and the imperfect.
