Item details
This is a Yuan Dynasty underglaze-red dragon-decorated jar with a lotus-leaf-shaped lid. The jar has a full, rounded body and a lotus-leaf-shaped lid whose finial fits neatly into the mouth, giving the piece a dignified profile. A dragon in underglaze red adorns the body, surrounded by floral and foliate motifs; the reddish-brown tones contrast with the white glaze in clearly defined layers. Bands of decoration encircle the shoulder, lid, and area above the foot, rendered with fine brushwork in an overall archaic and elegant style. (Height 27 cm, diameter 24.5 cm)
