Item Description This is an exquisite Japanese ceramic covered jar featuring a distinctive wave pattern design. The piece showcases an organic, rounded form with a fitted lid, decorated with undulating lines that flow across the entire surface. The glaze combines rich brown tones with striking blue accents, creating a dynamic visual effect reminiscent of ocean waves or topographical contours. The jar demonstrates skilled craftsmanship with its hand-carved or applied wave motif that wraps continuously around the body. The interior is finished in a smooth cream glaze, contrasting beautifully with the textured exterior. The lid sits securely on the jar, featuring a small knob for easy handling.
