Crafted by a Qing-dynasty artisan in Beijing, this large, wide-mouthed jar is decorated with contrasting textures to add interest to the vessel’s simple barrel shape. A grid-like texture stamped just beneath the unglazed rim draws the eye upwards, while the free application of dark brown drip glaze emphasizes the pot's balanced form, speckled with imperfections.
