A vase made of celadon-glazed ceramic with a greenish-blue or sea-green moulded in the shape of a 龙泉凤耳瓶 (mallet bottle with phoenix ears), which together with the handle-less shape was a recurring model in the Song dynasty due to its spiritual significance related to the beauty of rationality. This type of vase is notable for its harmonious shape, with a long, stylised neck that culminates in a prominent mouth that sits on a cylindrical body without a base. The uses of this type of piece could be for burning incense, preparing tea or containing floral arrangements.
