14th Century Vietnamese Annam Blue and White Ceramic Lidded Jar. Stoneware baluster form with underglaze decoration of floral motifs, including lotus or chrysanthemum patterns, and traditional crackle glaze. Originally used as a storage vessel for goods like spices or preserved foods, but now highly prized as decorative art.
Provenance: A note inside reads "Annam: 14th Century Blue and White Jar with Lead. Bought in the 'Russian Market' in Phnom Phen Cambodia, in Oct. 2004."
Size: 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 x 6 in.
Annam stoneware originated from northern Vietnam (known by that name at the time as the southernmost province of China after the Tang Dynasty), with a rich history spanning over 2,000 years, deeply influenced by Chinese technology but developing a distinct, often rustic, local aesthetic. Key production centers like Bat Trang and Tho Ha, dating back to the 14th Century and earlier, specialized in celadons, underglaze blue, and iron-black decorated wares that were widely traded throughout Southeast Asia. Much modern knowledge of the wares comes from the Hội An wreck, a massive archaeological find in 1983 that unearthed a sunken cargo vessel carrying over 250,000 intact ceramics from the Red River Delta in the 15th Century. Today, these pieces are considered museum-worthy, and collectors pay high prices for the most pristine surviving works.
