Large Chinese Earthenware Storage Jar, Song Dynasty or Earlier

  

Large Chinese Earthenware Storage Jar, Song Dynasty or Earlier. A large Chinese storage jar with two pairs of small loop handles and a dark brown glaze that ends just below the shoulder leaving most of the dark stoneware body exposed. Measures 17cm tall, probably Song dynasty or earlier.

One of the loop handles has broken off, there is a little wear around the rim and there are several small kiln flaws but generally in very good condition. Please see all photos for confirmation.
