Long-necked bottles such as this one were inspired by celadon pieces produced at the Yuezhou Kiln in China. Similar examples without any adornment or pattern have also been found among Goryeo celadon. Every second side of its long, square neck is graced with cloud designs. A band with an Anuruddha head design encloses the shoulder, while two peony blossoms and a single chrysanthemum alternately decorate the body.
