The jar is potted with an oblong shape, with a graceful swell that begins at the shoulders and tapers towards the base. The shoulders are stamped with vertical lines for grip and texture, and subtle ridges throughout the sides hint at the pot's coiled construction. Speckled with firing imperfections and glaze drips, the antique pot exemplifies the timeless appeal of handcrafted pottery. See less
