Description

Vase
This jar, glazed greenish gray color with areas of violet-gray and a crackled surface, was believed to be Persian when Freer purchased it in 1902 from Dikran Kelekian. It is now known to be East Asian in origin, although it remains uncertain if it is Chinese or Japanese. In the Peacock Room in Detroit, Freer displayed it alongside other similarly toned ceramics from China, Japan, and Syria.
