15th century
Height 47.7 cm, mouth diameter 14.5-15.0 cm, body diameter 39.8-41.2 cm, base diameter 17.0 cm
 The neck of the mouth is open and upright, with the tip formed into a jade rim. The shoulder still retains a slight tension, suggesting that it was made in the middle of the 15th century. The brownish-brown surface has yellowish-white and blackish-purple mottling in places, and the yellowish-green natural glaze from the mouth to the shoulder gives it a heartwarming appearance.
