Well potted with broad foot rising to a wide rounded shoulder below a short cylindrical neck with slightly thickened mouth rim, the body painted with a broad band of scrolling peonies borne on a continuous undulating leafy stem, the neck with wave band, the shoulder a peony scroll, and the base a petal band, the base left unglazed.


此罐造型別緻,紋飾纖麗典雅,刻畫筆法精準流暢,製作工藝精細,在粗獷樸雅面貌風行一時的作品中,屬別開生面的上乘之作。此罐唇口,短頸,溜肩,鼓腹,圈足。罐身胎體白潤細堅,釉面肥腴,膩白閃青。通體以青花繪製五層紋飾,頸部繪海浪紋一週,肩部繪纏枝蓮紋一週,腹部繪以纏枝牡丹紋一週,腹下部與足脛部之間繪一圈卷草紋作分隔,足脛部繪蓮瓣紋一週。其青花髮色深沈含蓄,藍中泛黑,品貌俱佳,時代特徵明顯,精品佳作,唯有口沿一處殘缺,略帶遺憾。
