Subject:Chinees Green Ginger Jar
Posted By: Martin Michels Mon, Sep 12, 2016 IP: 84.26.216.123

Hi,

Can someone tell me some more about this green ginger jar, is it old?
And if so, how old?
Does someone recognize the mark?
I even don't now whether the picture of the mark is correct or upside down.
Any information is welcome.
Thanks in advance.
Martin.

It is Shiwan (Shekwan) ware from south China. Used for storage, e.g., of food, etc. It probably dates circa 1900.

A little late due to vacation, but still thanks a lot.
Martin.
