Intact blue-on-white porcelain "kendi pot" (rare), from the "Hoi An Hoard" wreck (late 1400s). 545 grams, 5-1/2" tall and 5-1/2" in diameter. Among the neatest pieces ever offered from this early wreck, basically a handle-less teapot with 3/4" opening at top and very narrow (1/8") spout, theoretically for drinking straight from the spout, with design (in blue) of two lions on the body, flower petals around the top neck, all perfectly intact (just one tiny chip in top rim), most of glaze still intact, with a few barnacles still attached and Philippines National Museum sticker on plain bottom.
($350-500)
