Like the <em>Teabowl with Tortoiseshell Glaze </em>(<a href="https://www.clevelandart.org/art/2020.177">CMA 2020.177</a>), this jar was made in the Jizhou kilns of southeast China. Producing a variety of innovative dark glaze types, the potter here created a dynamic abstract pattern of waves in the form of light brown strokes brushed over a dark brown glaze.
