Hoi An Shipwreck jarlet with unusual cloud motifs, Chu Dau kilns, 15th century
Blue and white pottery jarlet, painted with cloud symbols beneath a lotus petal collar. Vietnam, made at Chu Dau, latter 15th Century. Recovered from the Hoi An shipwreck in 1999
Condition: obvious signs of being underwater, but quite good despite its 500 year ordeal.
Size 5x5cm
References: This wreck was discovered by fishermen in the late 1990’s, offshore from the Vietnamese town of Hoi An. The wares were made at Chu Dau, near Hanoi, where an excavated kiln site of the period matches the shipwreck finds exactly. The ship is believed to have been wrecked in the 1480’s, and was on its way to South-East Asian markets. The recovered goods were surveyed by the Oxford University Archaeological unit, recovered, conserved, and sold in the US in 2001.
