This vase has a lipped mouth, a long neck, angular shoulders, a cylindrical body, and a ring foot. On opposite sides of the neck there is a pair of fish-shaped handles, with head pointing up and the tail pointing down. The vase is covered with plum glaze, with a crackle effect. The sides of the foot are unglazed, leaving the gray biscuit exposed; there is a red firing mark at the point where the glazed and unglazed portions meet on the ring foot and base. This type of twin-handled vase was mainly produced in the Song Dynasty; the handles come in a wide range of different shapes and forms. The vase is suitable for filling with water and putting flowers in, or simply for use as an attractive ornament.
