Two applied children in high relief are on a ledge at the side, while a third child forms a finial on top of the lid. A glazed gourd form plaque with a Ban-ni mark in underglaze blue is on the back. 6 3/4” high. Early 20th century. Very good overall condition with no cracks, chips, or losses. This lidded jar is from an old Scottsdale, Arizona collection.
