A turquoise-glazed porcelain vessel features a tall body that widens at the center and tapers toward the base. A long neck rises to a wide, flared rim with a gold-colored edge. Two ornate handles shaped like stylized creatures with scrolling tails flank the neck. The vibrant glaze covers the smooth surface, emphasizing the vessel's elegant silhouette and the intricate details of the handles on either side.
