The bulbous body is adorned with elegantly carved floral motifs, with intertwining vines and flowers forming a natural, flowing pattern. The base is left unglazed. Base surface cracking is occasionally observed, primarily in ceramics excavated from the seabed. The base cracks are presumably attributed to prolonged exposure to seawater, where chemical interactions with minerals and stress from fluctuating hydrostatic pressure and currents induced microstructural changes in the ceramic soil.
