Honda Collection
 This jar belongs to the long jar series. The mouth rim is bent horizontally to form a 0.6 cm rounded rim band. The body is oval in shape with a beautifully rolled-up clay cord. There is a sweet kiln mark on the shoulder. The surface is light brown with a light green natural glaze on the shoulder and half of the body, which gives it an indescribable beauty.
This is one of the masterpieces of 15th century long jars.
