About MeThis brown bottle vase has squared sides and a short neck. There are incised stem leaf motifs around the body inside areas of beige glaze.
The orange peel texture on the darker brown areas on the exterior of the vase was created by adding salt to the kiln during firing. This technique is known as salt glazing.
