 This Buddhist vase has a remarkably long oral section and is made with a lily-shaped mouth. The sealed floral motif is a plum blossom arabesque design stamped in two places in the center of the body, one in the front and the other in the back. The iron glaze flows down from the oral part, and the body and below are covered with a blackish brown candy glaze.
