The well-potted pear-shaped vase rises from the flaring foot towards the everted rim, and is decorated by a pair of lug-handles. The vase is covered allover in a lustrous pale bluish-green glaze suffused with a fine, clear crackle in imitation the style of Guan-ware as an expression of nostalgia while inscribed with an imperial reign mark.
