A pale blue porcelain jar with a bulbous body features a dark brown lid. Low-relief patterns of swirling clouds and dragons wrap around the vessel, catching the light on its smooth sheen. A band of upright, petal-like shapes circles the base. The jar narrows toward the neck and bottom, creating a rounded silhouette. A carved circular design marks the top of the lid, contrasting with the uniform blue glaze.
