Liao Sancai Arhat

Description

Liao Sancai Arhat, height 65cm, length 48cm, width 26cm. A sancai statue fired in northern kilns of the Liao Dynasty (916–1125). Pottery body with green, yellow and white low-temperature lead glazes (typical Liao sancai). Molded and applied with glaze; arhat bare-chested, scowling and powerful, base with lotus patterns, glaze smooth without crackle (different from Tang sancai). Liao Dynasty (pre-Ming). Liao sancai statues are much rarer than Tang sancai; this vivid piece is of core value for researching Liao ceramic craftsmanship and Buddhist belief localization.
