Description
This is a modern work, with the flared edge of the vessel facing outwards and a funnel-shaped handle on the lid. A contemporary design is depicted in Hana-zume(filled with flowers) fashion, based on many small flowers covering the outside of the vessel and lid, drawn with colorful Western pigments that only Bizan had at the time.
