This rustic Sancai glazed terracotta vase originates from Yunnan province in southwestern China, a region long associated with robust utilitarian ceramics made for everyday domestic use. Thrown in terracotta and finished with a traditional glaze, the vase has a strong, balanced form with twin loop handles and subtle incised detailing around the shoulder, reflecting a design language rooted in function and durability.

The surface displays an appealingly timeworn appearance, with areas of wear, glaze loss, and firing marks that speak to age, use, and the handmade nature of the piece. These irregularities give the vase a richly textured, honest character, making it particularly suitable for interiors that value patina and authenticity. Originally intended for storage or transport, it now works beautifully as a decorative vessel or sculptural object.
