- Description
-
This bottle was formed in a mold as a rectangular vessel with strongly defined neck and foot. It is glazed with pale, cobalt-tinted blue-gray glaze except at the neck and foot, which are finished with brown iron glaze. On both wide sides a similar circular floral motif (probably an orchid) is painted freely with darker blue cobalt, iron, and copper (oxidized to red).
