FLASK-SHAPED LONG-NECKED BOTTLE, Sue Ware, Kofun Period（250-581CE）

This piece, commonly referred to as a flask-shaped bottle, features a rounded body crafted using techniques similar to those of a teapot, complemented by a long neck. The rim is gracefully distorted, adorned with a raised band that encircles it. Its surface, with a deep, lustrous black finish, exudes an enchanting presence that seems to absorb light, making it a beautiful vessel for floral arrangements. A drop-in insert for flowers is included.

To support the round-bottomed vessel, a specially made hemp circular base has been created, which will be provided with this item. It is depicted in the last two photographs.
