Vase with Peonies and Five Spouts
A pale green-glazed vase with a tall flared neck and five short spouts around the shoulder. Faint incised lines show peony blossoms and stems across the rounded body, with the glaze pooling softly in the carved areas.
Look closer: Faint incised peony stems and leaves run down toward the base of the vase.
