Large Unglazed Chinese Wide Neck Container. (James A. Lerk Collection) Chinese Large Unglazed Chinese Wide Neck Container. 220 mm. 1860s
Good. One of the oddest pieces I have seen, this is glazed under the base and around the lip only. James Lerk sourced this from a Chinese family in Bendigo many years ago who were still using it! Handed down over generations, the original spout had broken off, so they had plugged it with some hard substance and painted it silver - therefore this is only graded as good, theoretically could be worse! Some possible flakes to base edge, but with the crude making marks throughout it is hard to tell. A fabulous piece, one of two sizes sourced by James from the same family. Grade: 6.5 Estimate: $100 - 150
