Supported on a slightly flared foot rising to a flattened globular lower body tapering to a narrow waist,surmounted by the upper bulb with tapered neck and flanked by a pair of arched handles, deftly painted with a phoenix soaring amidst flames and lingzhi-shaped clouds,interrupted by lappet bands encircling the constricted waist,all between a border of lotus petals at the mouth and upright lappets skirting the foot.
