Chinese Cast Iron Vessel, c. 1850
About the Item
This cast-iron vessel has an elegant form reminiscent of the beautiful ironwork, bronzes, and ceramics perfected by Chinese artisans thousands of years ago. A century ago this jar would have been purely functional, but as the iron has gracefully aged over time, it has transformed into a sculptural object.
