Water Pot
A dome-shaped water pot with a small open mouth at the top. Its surface shows mottled green glaze shading into rust-red patches near the rim and shoulder. A carved roundel of stylized scrolling cloud forms sits at the center of the body.
Look closer: The carved roundel is subtly visible only as tonal relief under the green glaze.
