A finely made Chinese stoneware ewer, excavated from burial grounds in Laguna, Philippines, and dating to the late Song dynasty (12th-13th century). The vessel features a broad body, elongated spout, and incised decorative bands beneath a light celadon-toned glaze. These trade ceramics were exported widely throughout Southeast Asia, reflecting the vibrant maritime exchange between China and the Philippines archipelago during the pre-colonial era.

A rare and culturally significant Song-period trade ware representing the early material heritage of the Philippines.

Dimensions: 4" H x 6.5" W.

Condition

The surface shows expected earthen burial patina, mineral deposits, and minor glaze losses, consistent with age and archaeological recovery. Overall, this piece remains in good condition for its antiquity, with intact form and clearly visible decorative details. See photos for more details.
