"Celadon Ceramic Urn. China Song Period 11-12th Century."
The urn is made of very hard porcelain stoneware, the body and lid were turned. 5 cases were glued to the slip on the shoulder, as they are deeply hollow, without however crossing their support, I think that they must have served as a receptacle for incense sticks, a decoration of petals and stylized flowers is vigorously incised before firing, then covered with a cracked celadon glaze. Chinese work from the Song dynasty around the 11th-12th century. A chip in the setting, 3 of the five cases glued back together. No shortage or restoration.
