According to the catalogue of the museum, the elegance of this jar and its lid exemplifies the aesthetic of undecorated white porcelain that was popular in the 15th–16th century Joseon. In its balanced proportions and subtle design features on the lid with a bud-shaped knob, this porcelain reflects the refined sensibilities associated with the new ruling ideology of Neo-Confucianism of the Joseon dynasty (1392–1910).Also see a comparable white porcelain jar and cover, Joseon dynasty, 18.1cm high, previously in the collection of Robert W. and Mee-Din Moore, sold at Bonham's New York, 22 September 2021, lot 1168.Please note this lot will be offered with no reserve. ???????

RARE WHITE-GLAZED POTTERY JAR
RARE WHITE-GLAZED POTTERY JAR
TANG DYNASTY ? ???of tapering ovoid form rising from a flat straight foot, high rounded shoulders and inverted mouth, applied with a creamy white glaze, the glaze stops undulatingly above foot, with a later carved wooden lid(1)26.9cm highProvenance: Bluett & Sons, 1984. Illustrated in the Exhibition of Early Chinese Pottery and Porcelain and Iranian Works of Art, London: Messrs Bluett & Sons, 1967, with a copy of the catalogue and an associated label on base.Dr. Kenneth P. Lawley's inventory number: Cer.96.Note: Jar in oviform like this, with high shoulders rounding inwards to surround the mouth is atypical in Tang pottery wares. Most glazed pottery jars of the Tang dynasty are surmounted by a neck and are of more globular shape. The collector also observes, from a production-line point of view, it could readily have been turned into an amphora or a meiping by adding a neck and handles. A related example covered in sancai glaze, slightly smaller, is in the Asian Art Museum, San Francisco, object no. B60P201, and illustrated in He Li, 1996, Chinese Ceramics: A New Comprehensive Survey, New York: Rizzoli International Publications, pl. 161. The author notes on p.122, that two other neckless jars of ovoid shape have been found in Shaanxi and Henan provinces, and are published in Wenwu Ziliao Congkan, 1982:2, pg. 140 and Kaogu yu Wenwu, 1984:1, pl. 7.3, where they are described as 'olive-shaped'.Also compare to two similar jars, glazed in sancai, Tang dynasty, one sold at Christie's New York, 17 Sep 2008, lot 234; the other with a lid, previously in the Robert B. and Beatrice C. Mayer family collection, sold at Christie's New York, 13 Sep 2019, lot 1071.Please note this lot will be offered with no reserve. ???????
