Double-gourd vase

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Double-gourd vase by artist. A green vase with a glossy finish. The vase has two connected bulbous sections, one larger than the other, with the smaller one on top. The top section narrows to a flared opening. The vase sits on a short, black stand with a carved design around the top and three feet at the bottom. The background is plain white with a shadow cast by the vase and stand.
