PLATE XXVII
Vase with ovoid body slightly contracted above the base,
short neck and wide mouth with rolled rim. Hard buff ware
with incised ornament and coloured glaze. On the body are
two overlapping bands of formal leaves with triple outlines
and hatched details ; the lower band is green and the upper
yellow, and the surface above is green ; on the shoulder is a
band of three wheel-made rings. The motive of the leaf
ornament is probably derived from the lotus flower.
T'ang dynasty. H. 75".
In the possession of Mr. George Eumorfopoulos.
