This red pottery kuei is made of sandy clay. Three rivet-shaped decorations appear on the chest and two sides of the spout. The upper portion of the spout is slightly contracted. The mouth rim tilts backward. Cord patterns decorate the handle. The pottery kuei pitcher is a typical vessel type of the Ta-wen-k’ou and Shantung Lung-shan culture.
