Vase in the shape of a double gourd

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a ceramic vase shaped like a double gourd. The vase is a blue-green color with a glossy glaze. It has a narrow neck and a wide body that is divided into two bulbous sections. The top section is smaller and has a hole at the top. The vase has a small foot at the bottom. The background is a plain beige color. The vase appears to be sitting on a flat surface. The overall style of the vase suggests it may be a traditional or antique piece.
