This water jar has a flat bottom and a round body with a receiving mouth. The body is decorated with a design of plum blossoms and arabesques in the center and a sword-tip design in the lower half using the inka (inka) technique. This is a design from the peak of the inka period. The iron glaze has been largely removed, but the blackish brown color is unevenly distributed on the surface.
