Description
A large Hsun-ok offering vessel. Unique to Burma, such vessels were used to present offerings of food at Buddhist monasteries. Often made of wood and bamboo, the vessels consisted of a curved bowl set on a waisted pedestal flaring out to a circular foot-ring. The lid tapers to an elegant spire. The vessel was first lacquered in black, with a red cinnabar lacquer applied over top.
