Globular pot with fluted lid and lotus petals, China, Jin Dynasty

Descriptio Terracotta. Globular vessel with a lid, entirely modeled in broad vertical ridges reminiscent of lotus petals, a symbolic motif associated with purity and rebirth. The surface has a matte, slightly irregular texture, revealing the clay nature of the material and the marks of the modeling process. The lid, topped with a central knob, echoes the decorative vocabulary of the body, ensuring a harmonious formal unity. The restraint of the ornamentation, based on the interplay of volumes and reliefs, reflects the aesthetic of Jin Dynasty production, where functionality and symbolism take precedence over decorative abundance. This piece is part of the continuity of ancient Chinese ceramic traditions, marking a significant stage in the evolution of forms and decorations. 20 x 20 cm.
