Glazed ”hu” vase

Description Globular hu vase with flat, straight foot, curved neck and wide lip in the shape of a low truncated cone-cup. Two decorative motifs (pushou) applied with a ring on the central section of the body are diametrically opposed. The only other decorations consist of a series of threads, variously grouped. The vase is entirely covered, base included, by a dark and brilliant green glaze.
