Ming Dynasty (14th Century) Longquan Celadon Ring-Handled Covered Jar.Finely potted with a compact and balanced form, this Longquan celadon jar is decorated with applied ring handles and studded bosses. The glaze is thick and unctuous, displaying a soft celadon tone characteristic of Longquan wares. The overall condition is good.Dimensions: Height 9.8 cm; Belly Diameter 7.6 cm/ Provenance: Formerly from a Canadian private collection/ AI Authentication & Analysis: Kiln Attribution: Longquan Kiln/ Period: Ming Dynasty/ Authenticity: Authentic / Analysis:The celadon glaze exhibits a warm and lustrous tone typical of Longquan wares, with natural crackle patterns and signs of age. This differs from the paler bluish tone of Jingdezhen qingbai wares.The form—drum-shaped body with applied bosses and ring handles—is consistent with Ming dynasty Longquan production. Such covered jars were commonly used as scholarly or incense-related vessels. The proportions and decorative elements align closely with known examples.The exposed foot reveals a dark brown body typical of Longquan kiln production of the Ming period. The wear along the foot rim appears naturally aged. The glaze surface is soft and subdued, and the transitions in decoration are fluid, lacking the rigidity often seen in modern reproductions. These combined features support an attribution as an authentic Ming Longquan celadon piece.
