Tea jar with cover

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Tea jar with cover by artist. Brown ceramic jar with a wide body that tapers to a narrow neck. The jar has a rough, textured surface with small bumps and a darker brown color at the bottom that fades to a lighter brown towards the top. A decorative line of small triangular indentations around the middle of the jar. The cover is round and flat, made of light-colored ceramic. The background is plain and light-colored. The jar sits on a flat surface, casting a shadow.
