Bowl with flowers and waves. Stoneware, thrown, incised and combed, and celadon-glazed. The rounded conical bowl rests on a small foot with low bevelled footring. The inside is covered with a combed wave pattern which ends at an incised line leaving a band at the rim plain. The outside is covered with a finely incised chrysanthemum scroll. The body is thin and the pale brownish-green glaze is glossy. On the footring are traces of four fire-clay spurs.
