Comments:Harrison-Hall 2001:Similar jars of this type, with underglaze blue decoration and crackled glaze, were recovered from the cargo of an Asian trading vessel, wrecked in the South China Sea near the Philippines either at the end of the sixteenth or in the early seventeenth century. In addition to the dating of this jar, it is also possible to suggest a place of manufacture. Identical jars have been excavated at Dongkou yao, Pinghe county, in Fujian province, and are now in the Fujian Provincial Museum. Li Jian’an – not Pinghe 10 November 2009
