A masterpiece of Yixing ware, the pride of China's Yixing kilns, this is a double-handled vase with "raw sea cucumber" glaze (namako-de). When discussing this raw sea cucumber glaze, one cannot overlook Ge Mingxiang, a master craftsman who was active during the Qianlong and Jiaqing periods (1736-1820) of the Qing dynasty. Pottery with sea cucumber glaze made by Ge Mingxiang was once exported to Japan in large quantities and widely loved. It is still frequently found in old houses and the homes of antique collectors.
