CIZHOU WHITE VASE WITH BROWN POEM INSCRIPTIONS
Jin Dynasty

This vase features a round mouth, long concave-neck, and plump lower body. The base and area above it are unglazed, while the rest of the vase is covered in a coat of white glaze with a yellow tint. Aside from the inscription of a poem, the vase is not decorated with either flower or bird patterns. The calligraphic inscription is elegant and exudes an ethereal quality. A few minimalistic horizontal line patterns decorate the lower body and section where the neck and shoulder meet, imbuing the piece with a rustic temperament. The vase form is defined by harmonious curves. Aside from some scratches across its lower body, this piece is in perfect condition.
