About the Item

This distinctive vinegar pot is from Shan Xi province, northern China, renowned for its exceptional aged vinegars. Exhibiting an unique form with a single small sprout. The rounded body rising from a splayed foot to a flared rim, lacquered with brownish black glaze stopping short of the foot and exposing the buff colored clay body. Unlike typical vinegar jars with wide openings, this piece features a closed form with a single sprout, making it ideal for both storage and serving. This exceptional piece is in remarkable condition with no chips, while retaining a beautiful patina that speaks to its age and history. It is a testament to the craftsmanship and ingenuity of Chinese artisans and a fascinating artifact of culinary tradition.
