Long traditionally attributed to the Liao dynasty, such green-glazed covered boxes should actually be dated to the Tang to Five Dynasties period, based on artifacts recovered from the Belitung shipwreck (Batu Hitam) and a piece in the Tokyo National Museum (TG-2280). This example was formerly in the collections of the renowned Oriental Ceramic Society member Sir Harry Garner and Alfred & Ivy Clark. (SACA Observation, Nov 9, 2026)
