Ca. 618-906 AD A mold-formed pottery tomb attendant figure in the form of a female attendant who is wearing a lengthy robe with a mint-painted skirt, upper clothing in orange and white; her left hand holding a disk. She is displaying a harmonic expression; her smiling face with highlighted lips beneath a large hair bun. This piece has been precisely dated having undergone Thermo Luminescence analysis by Ralf Kotalla, an independent German Laboratory. The samples collected date the piece to the period reflected in its style, whilst also showing no modern trace elements. Its TL certificate with full report will also accompany this lot. Size: L:350mm / W:110mm ; 1.2kg Provenance: East Anglian private collection; formerly acquired in the early 1990s in Hong Kong.
