A glossy green ceramic vessel takes a horizontal, pillow-shaped form with tapering points. Raised bands and circular studs cinch its midsection, beneath a cylindrical neck with a broken rim and curved handle. While vibrant green glaze covers most of the body, the right side features streaks of white, yellow, and blue flowing downward. Light glints off the high-gloss surface, emphasizing the vessel's bulbous silhouette and hand-crafted decorative details.
