Subject:Borneo Forest Martaban Jar
Posted By: Surya Giri Sun, May 15, 2016 IP: 202.73.227.38

My father bought a Martaban Jar from Borneo Forest in 1990s with a barter of an Ox to native forest people. It is about 55 cm high, with concave and unglazed bottom, 6 ear lugs and blue dragon and white phoenix picture with medalions. The color are consists of green, milky white (near bottom and some medals), cobalt blue, and brown. The body of dragon and phoenix are made by press clay outside the jar and etched with lines. It is appear like Tang San Tsai but with celadon green color. Beside I haven't seen Tang San Tsa as a martaban. Any idea what is it?
