It is very rare to find a white-glazed ewer of this form and large size. Compare to a ewer with similar form and smaller size, sold at Christie's New York, 20-21 March 2014, lot 2075.
This type of ewer likely derives from metalwork prototypes originating in Western Asia. Compare a gilt-silver ever from 6th/7th century, Iran, in the collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, accession number 67.10a, b. For a closely related form compare with a gilt-silver foreign-style ewer unearthed in Guyuan, Ningxia, dated to the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and now preserved in the Guyuan Museum, Ningxia.
The result of Oxford thermoluminescence test no. P116d58 (6 April 2016) is consistent with the dating of this lot.
