A beautiful sancai tri-glazed jar of the Tang dynasty style. The jar of globular form, is covered with a rich, lustrous sancai glaze which stops short of the rounded base. The sancai of green, caramel and butterscotch is hand applied to the surface, letting it drip naturally.  No two sancai pieces are the same given the random nature of the drip. The foot rim and base are unglazed revealing the buff ware. The Sancai glaze began in the Tang dynasty (618-907 AD), its splendid colors and timeless appeal is a testament to the high artistry and sophisticated aesthetics in ancient China.
