This majestic large covered jar (often referred to as a vat) is a classic piece of Ming Dynasty style Hongwu period craftsmanship, standing 55 cm high and measuring 36 cm wide.

The lid is elegantly crafted to resemble a fluttering lotus leaf with a scalloped, upturned rim, topped by a lotus bud finial. The main body is beautifully decorated in underglaze red (copper red), featuring the traditional “Three Friends of Winter” motif: gnarled pine trees, resilient bamboo, and blossoming plum branches.

The piece is intricately bordered with a ruyi cloud collar at the neck, a band of chrysanthemums on the shoulder, and stylized petal lappets with scrolling floral designs at the base. The underglaze red captures the iconic, slightly mottled copper tone of the Hongwu era, creating a stunning, vibrant, and highly decorative centerpiece.
