Fiziksel açıklama
Bottle, fritware, pear shape with long knopped neck and flared rim, painted in blue and outlined with black under a clear glaze. A bulbous ring with scroll and florets interrupts the neck decorated with plantain leaves. A further band of leaves ceases at the final broadening of the neck with its two bands, the lower one with lozenges enclosing a small bird. On the main body two rocky islands with a pair of oversized ducks alternate with two pairs of bamboo trees or ferns surrounded by two unusually tall huts with a bunch of flowers and lofty clouds. the scenery is bordered at the top by a band of lappets and at the bottom by a band of lotus panels with plain dividers. Imitation Chinese square mark in black. The top of the bottle has been ground down.
