Covered Jar (Guan shape)
The ceramic jar has a rounded body and a domed lid. The jar and lid are predominantly white with black designs. The body of the jar features a large floral pattern. A double-lined border runs along the top and bottom of the body. The lid is decorated with a pattern of leaves and vines. The lid has a small knob on top. The background is a plain gray color. The jar appears to be an example of a Guan shape, "Covered Jar", by an unknown artist.
