Ewer in the Form of a Phoenix
The ceramic ewer is shaped like a Phoenix. The ewer has a white body with blue floral patterns. The body of the bird has a long neck, a curled handle on one side and a spout on the other representing the left wing. The head is looking to the right. A decorative collar encircles the base of the neck. The ewer stands on a small pedestal base. The background fades from dark grey to lighter grey.
