Description:
Of slender pear shape with tall, tapering tubular neck encircled by a moulded rib, and with a rounded mouth encased in nine moulded petals, like a lotus seed-pod. On either side of the body are animal masks with pendant rings in relief; somewhat spreading foot. The glaze, which also covers the base, is of a smooth, ochreous opaque olive-green showing darker flecks.
The four characters seal mark is stamped into the base.
Comments:
Difficilement identifiable dans la liste de '1729', cette couverte 'soufflée' est peut-être une invention datant de la fin du règne.
