Title: Ginger Pot
Post by: dennotherich on Apr 10, 2017, 18:06:06
This Ginger pot was found in a tip in Australia.  Its crude and worn 9.2cm tall and 9cm diam. Nothing on base.  Any ideas of type, age, value?
Regards
Dennis

Thanks Dennotherich for the bottom picture, I think it would be safe to say that it is 20th century, not an Antique, Vintage at the most.

A fully glazed bottom means it was fired on stilts or another support. There seem to be traces of spurs. The shape would be a Qing dynasty shape, but ginger jars were never fired this way in China.
