Small curl mouth, short neck, abundant shoulder, narrowed body, shallow foot ring, and delicate sand bottom constructed a vase with decoration of dragon, cross cloud, billows, mountain, and so on. The underglaze-blue dragon showed vigorousness and vividness among raging waves. There were also gorgeous underglaze-blue color and natural iron rust spots with silver reflection. The firm and white clay showed sleekness and moist on ware bottom.
