It features a short, slightly curved spout, a smooth, D-shaped handle, and a matching domed lid with a simple, flat-topped finial.

The entire exterior is covered in a striking, deep "oxblood red" glaze, historically known as "Langyao Red" or "Sacrificial Red" (Jihong). The glaze is thick, glossy, and rich in color, with a subtle texture that catches the light beautifully. The rims of the spout, handle, lid, and the foot ring are left unglazed or wiped clean, revealing the pale white porcelain body beneath—a classic feature of this style of monochrome ware.

The flat base is glazed white and features a blue, handwritten six-character seal mark reading "大清雍正年製" (Made in the Great Qing Yongzheng Period), indicating a later tribute piece.

This is a striking, minimalist piece perfect for a tea enthusiast or as a vibrant decorative accent.
