Blue-on-white Chinese porcelain jarlet, Zhangzhou (Swatow), late Ming Dynasty. 68.7 grams, 2" tall and 1-3/4" in diameter. Small, round vase with 3/4" hole in rim at top (with natural flaw under the glaze), vivid deer design in two panels, crude base due to dripping of glaze, intact and much nicer than it sounds. The "Binh Thuan wreck," sunk off the southern coast of modern-day Vietnam and salvaged in 2001, was a Chinese junk, possibly linked to the merchant I Sin Ho, who lost a ship there in 1608 laden with silk and other goods on the way from China to Johor (Malaysia). Recovered from: "Binh Thuan wreck," sunk ca. 1608 off Vietnam
