Double-gourd shaped bottle on high foot. The long tapering neck bulges slightly towards the base. Kraak porcelain, decorated in underglaze blue. On the body two large pomegranate-shaped panels decorated with a double-gourd, a flywhisk with ribbons and a single blossom. Between the panels a fish-scale pattern separated by a horizontal and a vertical band with a blossom and a ruyi motif. Low on the neck six panels with auspicious symbols, above a similar fish-scale pattern. Gourd-shaped bottles are a normal part of the kraak assortment, but all known examples have a low footring with a slightly spreading mouthrim. Therefore, this bottle with its high foot, elongated oval-shaped belly and tapering neck is most unusual and can be considered as a rare kraak item. The high foot could be related to those on certain types of ewers and vases from the second quarter of the 16th century (Krahl & Ayers).
