Excellent
Condition
Lustrous black glaze with gilt decoration. A classic scroll borders the lid
with an elaborate peony at the top. The base of the jar has a border of
alternating leaf and stylized ruyi heads. Directly above are the Eight Buddhist
Emblem's circling the shoulder. In fine detail is a decorative band of flowers,
leaves, ruyi heads, and endless knots. Imperial quality.
Note: There is a small glaze crack inside the
lid (see macro). Some of the gold is worn away from age, but otherwise the
condition is perfect.
