A tea-dust glazed ewer, dating back to the Song Dynasty (960-1279), has a phoenix head-shaped spout and a long neck decorated with bow-string patterns. A handle links the phoenix head with the ewer’s shoulder.
Housed in the Jining Museum in Shandong province, the ewer presents traditional Chinese aesthetics by combining its exquisite structure with a unique glaze color.
