Statue, Zoomorphic Ram-Handled Ceramic Pitcher - 16 cm - Ceramic, Glaze, Terracotta - 1960
Zoomorphic Ram-Handled Ceramic Pitcher, China, circa 1960, incised mark
Chinese ceramic, circa 1960. Hand-formed pitcher modeled as a stylized ram, with a sculpted horn handle and flared pouring spout. Finished in a variegated green glaze with pink accents, set on an unglazed foot.
The base bears an incised mark, indicating workshop or maker identification, supporting its classification as studio or small-scale production rather than mass manufacture.
Good condition with minor surface wear consistent with age. No visible cracks or restorations.
The integration of animal form into a functional vessel reflects mid-20th century Chinese decorative ceramics, where individual craftsmanship and expressive glazing were emphasized. The presence of a maker’s mark and the sculptural execution enhance its collectability.
Dimensions: height 16 cm, width 9 cm, depth 23 cm
