M.C. 8758
Inscription:
The scribe
This large-sized piece has several particularities, compared to the gui M.C. 8759. The very thin neck has no decorative band. The vessel has three handles. The relatively high foot is adorned with three pairs of stylised dragons facing each other, forming a taotie mask in line with the handles.
