Go ahead and touch this antiquity or put it in a glass display case. Excavated from a private tomb near the ones in Xian Qianling, Shaanxi Province. It is not the typical appearance & texture of the more popular glazed pottery of this era. But it is from the Tang Dynasty and it is an important part of ancestral history. In fair condition with some repairs.
