URN. Funeral urn (grain) Grave finds. Oval lower part with imposed decor in relief on the upper part. Between the upper and the lower part an edge with 12 standing human figures. In the past, Buddha is seen sitting facing forward with animals and a dragon around him. The figures and the ornaments are pressed in molds. Light greyish yellow glaze, in some places greenish, thin and windy and finely cracked. Usually appeared in pairs.
Purchased 1919 by Georg Karlin from a South German collection, purchased at Bukowski 1919. Price 1.550 Kr.
One of the customs at burials during the dynasties of Song and Yuan, especially in Södern, was to attach rice as a gift to the spirits of the dead in the tombs. The gift boxes were kept in pots covered with sweet-carrying decorations, so-called hunping or “breath bottles,” and they were placed in the
the Graves of the Wealth. The applied decor on the Hallwylan objects depicts the green dragon of the Baltic on one and the White Tiger of the West on the other, along with the sun god, star gods and cranes, associated with
a long life. A vase still has a fixed sun disk with clouds and loops around the top, where the user could attach the long lid. On top of the lid is visible The red bird of the South.
