AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Khmer style earthenware food pots from Cambodia. These are archaeological finds from a riverbed. They date from the first half of the 19th century.

The Khmer population group is an Austroasiatic ethnic group from Cambodia and is also one of the oldest ethnic groups in the region. They predominantly practice Theravada Buddhism.
According to an old legend, the Varnan Dynasty, ancient Cambodia, originated from an Indian Brahman marrying the celestial nymph 'Mera'. This marriage laid the foundation for the Khmer and Cambodia.

The old food pots are in good condition. Due to use and, of course, their age, they have characteristic appearance features. Examples include a shard that is missing here and there or a small crack.

The dimensions are:
height 9 cm x diameter 15.8 cm
height 9 cm x diameter 15.8 cm
height 6.75 cm x diameter 15.2 cm
height 7.25 x diameter 16.5 cm

The pots are carefully packaged and shipped.

Seller's Story

Rootz Gallery has an extensive collection of remarkable art objects from the non-Western world and a collection of modern and contemporary art. The art collection originally started with the gathering of modern and contemporary art. Due to a long-standing fascination with other cultures, it was quickly expanded to include non-Western art objects. The gallery has primarily focused on non-Western art for a long time, but has recently also refocused on modern and contemporary art. Many pieces originate from ritual contexts and have been carefully collected over a period of 40 years. The items, often acquired during travels and coming from old collections, offer a unique insight into authentic cultures and traditions.
