The pottery house, possibly Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), green-glazed funerary ceramic inspired by traditional Chinese architecture with influences extending back to the Han Dynasty, a piece that was probably intended for the tomb of a wealthy individual (15 1/2 x 10 1/2 x 9 1/4 in.)(good estate condition; some restoration to lower portion of the roof; some minor nicks with loss to edges), and a tomb style ox, likely a 20th century replica, with ivory pigment, standing on a shaped plinth (8.5 x 13 x 5 in.)(some losses to pigment.)
