Martaban Jars, so named because they were shipped out of the Burmese port of Martaban, were an important trade item in Southeast Asia and the Philippines during the Song and Ming dynasties. Sometimes also known as talking or dragon jars, these huge, hand-built jars functioned as utilitarian and sacred containers, and today provides insights into the considerable skill of early potters.
