Description
VASE. Dark brown glazed stoneware. Khmer, ca. 12th to 13th century. HEIGHT 33 CM
An eccentrically composed “baluster shaped†Khmer vase with a flared foot and strongly flared funnel-shaped neck. Several circumferential ridges - around the foot, the base of the body of the vase, at the neck, etc. - strikingly divide the piece in sections, around the base of the neck there is a band of cross notches, conically tapered with a broadly widening body and slenderer countermovement at the foot and opening. The underside of the opening is finned and the thin lip is pointed upward sharply. The color of the glaze is brownish-black, the flat bottom is unglazed. Slight weathering on foot portion, minor restorations on neck, overall good condition. Note.: In KHMER CERAMICS from the Southeast Asian Ceramic Society (Singapore 1981) No. 83 there is a very similar, comparable example of approximately the same height, and in KHMER CERAMICS, Oxford University Press 1984, in Nos. 102 and 103 there are also comparable examples (somewhat larger in height)
