Fiziksel açıklama
Bottle painted in two shades of blue and black. A scrolling band covers the flattened rim. A diaper band marks the upper neck, while five panels with split leaves divide its lower part. Four S-stems and flowers fill the shoulder, as well as a petal border. A series of seated figures in long robes amidst flowery stems decorate the body. A pair of fighting buffaloes are depicted under the spout. Four panels divide the spout with its petal-collar lobed nozzle. No mark.
