A blue and white double gourd bottle. On the lower bulb a landscape after the Chinese 'Transitional' style has been depicted, with tall bush like trees and islands of rocks and foliage, among which are a group of figures, some carrying slender bottles and wearing curious hats; there are smiliar scenes on the upper bulb. Round the waist is a border of broken scrollwork and on the nexk, one of stiff pointed leaves.
