Vietnam, likely 13th-14th century, two raised rings at the shoulder form a register in which applied fish are swimming to the right, even brown glaze below the rings, lighter color above the shoulder.

15 in.

For a similar example, see illustration #82 in "Vietnamese Ceramics, A Separate Tradition." A seldom seen large form.

No repairs evident under black light; faint traces are all that remain of one fish; another fish possibly existed in a now smoothed area between the raised rings; light wear and minor chipping consistent with age and use.

$200 - 400
