From Central Thailand. Stoneware, H: 9" x dia.8". Like the large storage jar illustrated here, this vessel, with its buff clay body, is glazed a dark brown on the upper part of the body. The broad lip would have served the same purpose as the lugs on the larger jar, as a cover could have been tied over the broad mouth. These vessels were used both as export ware and for domestic use. A jar of this type would have been thrown in two parts and luted together.
