The vessel features an elegant, elongated silhouette accented by two robust, hand-applied loop handles, reflecting the masterful utilitarian design and organic beauty central to traditional Japanese pottery. The jar measures approximately 12 5/8 in. H x 5 in. in diameter, and it is presented in overall good condition, exhibiting general age-appropriate surface wear.
