Antique Sawankhalok, Thailand pair of Small Ceramic Bottles / Vases with Lugs, Iron Glaze,
Antique small ceramic bottle vase from Sawankhalok, Thailand. These were part of the Sawankhalok ceramic wares collection from the Sukhothai period.
History:
The 13th century kiln sites of the Sukhothai wares have been explored and the wares discovered. The Sukhothai kilns have been found outside the northern wall of the ancient city of Sukhothai, and the Sri Satchanalai kilns. One particular kiln in Sri Satchanalai has been excavated and is exhibited as an open air museum, a few km northwest of the Sri Satchanalai archaeologic site.
Production begun in the 13th century, possibly with the decline of Khmer ceramics. During the 15th century China was faced with an important crisis, opening the opportunity for Sukhothai ceramics to conquer export markets. Sukhothai wares have been found in Indonesia, the Philippines and China among other countries. They were a very important article of trade. Collections have been found in sunken vessels around the gulf of Thailand, still in good condition after centuries under water.
In the middle of the 16th century, production at Sukhothai was discontinued, possibly related to the wars between the kingdom of Ayudhaya and the Burmese, and the resurgence of Chinese ceramics.
