This small soup pouring vessel shows a design using the same technique as the “Iroe flower design on the lid. The rounded shape of the bowl is well organized and lovely from the arched handle to the body. The white ground is covered with a transparent glaze in which floral and arabesque patterns are expressed in gosu, and the ground is then covered with red pigments, leaving the patterns in place. The inscription of “Qianzan” is written on the bottom in iron pigment.
