Catalog note / 解説

Three-sided porcelain flask with underglaze blue decoration. This unique flask is of triangular cross-section with rounded edges, a barrel-shaped neck which bulges in the middle and a three-sided spreading foot. Along each of the three vertical edges are at the shoulder a loop, towards the bottom of the flask a tubular attachment and in the foot a hole. It is painted under the glaze in blue cobalt with figures in double oval frames and with ornate medallions containing archaic-style characters.
