The unusual shape of this zhadou, with its broad sloping mouth rim, was inspired by early metalwork prototypes dating back to the Han dynasty. For an example see Zacke, 16th October, 2021, lot 333. It has been suggested that vessels of this specific shape may have functioned as waste recepticle for wine dregs or tea leaves.
Xing wares from Hebei province were the best quality white-glazed ceramic of the Tang dynasty. The kilns are best known for their tea bowls, dishes and bowl stands, and vessels like the present zhadou are very rare.
Literature comparison:
Compare a closely related zhadou with a slightly smaller flared mouth, more compressed body and covered with a white-crackle glaze, dated to the Tang dynasty in the Palace Museum, Beijing, illustrated in Porcelain of the Jin and Tang Dynasties, The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum, Hong Kong, 1996, no. 144, and another zhadou in the same monograph, no. 143. Also compare a zhadou of similar shape but covered with a celadon glaze that was included in the Nezu Institute of Fine Arts exhibition, Toji hakuji, seiji, sancai (Tang pottery and porcelain), Tokyo, 1988, no. 49. Compare two related Tang dynasty silver zhadou illustrated in Tangdai Jinyin Qi, Beijing, 1985, nos. 255 and 278, the first excavated at Xi'an, and the second with a slightly concave mouth rim found in a tomb in Linan Xian Shiu Qiushi, Zhejiang province. Also compare with a prototype from the Han Dynasty at Zacke, 16th October, 2021, lot 333.

唐末至五代邢窯白釉渣斗
中國，九至十世紀。渣斗口外撇，口沿呈漏斗形碗狀，膽形狀腹，平底。器里外施白釉，底無釉。此件渣斗胎質潔白細膩，造型規整大方。
來源：美國古玩交易。
品相：狀況良好，有磨損和製造缺陷，包括輕微凹坑、黑點和釉面裂紋。表面淺劃痕。頸部和邊緣有一些剝落的釉面。
重量：363.9 克
尺寸：直徑 13 厘米, 高 10.6 厘米
唐代渣斗的頸口則非常細，配合大敞的撇口，利於茶水與茶渣的分離。例如參見 Zacke，2021 年 10 月 16 日，拍品 333。河北邢窯白釉是唐代白釉陶瓷中品質最好的，以茶碗、茶盤、碗架而聞名。
