The lid is missing, but it is clear that it was fired with the same lid.
It is a short-necked jar with a slightly high neck and a narrowed neck, and the base is of a degenerate form with the remnants of a tier in the center. It is made of good quality white clay and was ground up in a haphazard manner, showing a very skilled technique on the potter’s wheel.
The firing is very good, and the shoulder is covered with a bright green natural glaze.
