 This small jar has a short, upright neck with a rounded tip, and the rim of the mouth is partially bent to form a one-way mouth. The rim of the mouth is partially folded to form a one-sided mouth. The body is nearly spherical in shape, and the lower half has been shaped by grinding, while the upper half has been adjusted by using a brush horizontally on the surface. The reddish-brown body is covered with a yellowish-green natural glaze on a part of the shoulder. There is a kiln mark slightly above the body.
