This ewer with its round mouth and long neck resembles a trumpet. A subtle line divides the neck and shoulder. The long body slowly curves into the base, whose thick round form provides the ewer with ample stability. A short spout elegantly extends out from its shoulder. The ewer has a semi-circular handle positioned directly opposite to the spout and connected to the shoulder and neck. The handle features some artistic carvings that imbue a graceful quality for this otherwise plain ewer. White glaze gives the piece a nice sheen. This Xing Ewer perfectly echoes the phrase, “Xing porcelain resembles silver or snow,” from The Classic of Tea.
