Provincial Earthenware Vessel

This ceramic vessel from Shanxi province has a smoky grey-taupe exterior with balanced proportions and a matte, unglazed finish. Charged with the humble task of storing dry goods, the earthenware jar has a tapered form with rounded shoulders and a flat rim. Left undecorated, the jar has a quiet beauty, patterned only by firing imperfections and the brushed texture of its mottled slip clay finish. We love this storied vessel as a planter for indoor houseplants.
