About Jiaxing Museum
Its published collection includes a human-head pottery vessel and a black-pottery gui with bag-shaped feet, alongside a Ming sancai ceramic boat. These objects invite comparison between vessels made for early communities and later decorative storytelling in clay. Use the current gallery plan to locate the archaeological and ceramic displays, since collection highlights are not a guarantee of permanent exhibition.
What to look for
- The human-head vessel and bag-foot gui reveal distinctive Neolithic pottery forms.
- The Ming sancai ceramic boat provides a contrasting example of later ceramic modelling.
