The lower part of the abdomen is swollen, the neck is narrow, and the mouth is trumpet-shaped. This shape began to be made in the Song dynasty.
It is probably a bottle for sake because it is named “春”.
The large and small glaze craks that enter the whole are beautiful, and the upper part of the body where glaze easily collects is slightly deep and beautiful.
It is a highly accurate product that is firmly glazed up to the bottom.
