Product description
Neolithic pottery Jar Majiayao culture, Banshan periode from Gansu province, China. 2500 to 2300 BC (about 4400 years old!). The globular body tapers down to small flat foot, lively painted in black and red on the upper register with alternating vertical ‘cowry’ and ‘fishnet’ panels, a band of concentric circles at the base of the neck below bands of ‘fishnet’ and triangular patterns, a pair of loop handles applied at the waist. This pottery jar exemplifies the distinctive characteristics of the Majiayao culture, a notable Neolithic civilization situated predominantly in the upper Yellow River region, China. Renowned for its painted potteries, the Majiayao culture holds historical significance as it marks the initial widespread settlement of agricultural communities in the Upper Yellow River region. Provenance: Dickhaut venduehuis Maastricht (Tefaf 2011) From the Schimmelpenninck family collection Marianne Schimmelpenninck (1786)
