Of massive proportions, a heavy stout cylindrical form, the sides display an attractive grain with naturalistically rendered bark-like protrusions. The concave base fitted with a central plug.
Too large for use as a brush pot, this bold sculptural piece was likely used for the storing of scrolls or paintings.
Height: 29.8 cm (11 3/4 inches)
Provenance: An American Private Collection
