McGovern, P.E., White, J., ‘Ceramic Technology at Prehistoric Ban Chiang, Thailand: Psycochemical Analyses’, in Masca Journal, volume 3, no.4, June, 1985, pp.104-113, figs.BC2, BC9, for similar pottery; see also Labbe, A., Prehistoric Thai Ceramics: Ban Chiang in Regional Cultural Perspectives, Bangkok, 2002. 1.6 kg, 21 cm high (8 1/4 in.).

From a collection acquired on the UK art market from various auction houses and collections mostly before 2000. From an important Cambridgeshire estate; thence by descent.

Ban Chiang, on Thailand’s Khorat Plateau, offers interesting archaeological remains dating from the 4th millennium B.C. onwards. The artificial inventory is dominated by ceramic assemblages characterised by highly aesthetic forms and decorations. They show surface colour variations, particularly in black, white and red hues.
