A dark reddish-brown ceramic vessel features an elongated teardrop shape with a glossy, streaked surface. Near the shoulder, three small white protrusions are spaced around the body, from which orange-yellow glaze drips down the sides. A tiered lid with a pointed knob sits atop the vessel, decorated with horizontal bands of brown and white. The glaze transitions into dark vertical streaks that flow toward the tapered base.
