The vase features an innovative organic and sculptural silhouette characteristic of the era, reminiscent of a freshly blooming flower bud or a naturally formed ice sculpture, with thick, smooth, and softly curved walls.

This piece is not merely a functional vase, but an independent museum-quality collectible art object.

There is a small flaw on the bottom of the vase, which does not affect its function.
