 This incense container is large in size for an incense container, so it was probably made as a tea utensil. The round lid with simple categorized knob is dropped over the mouth, and the rounded body has ears on the shoulders and a low base with a ring on the bottom. The top and bottom of the body are decorated with a design of small chrysanthemums and flowers, and the white areas are covered with a feldspar glaze with a detailed cobblestone design painted in iron on the surface. The green glaze is vividly colored, making this an outstanding work of art rarely seen elsewhere.
