Introduction:
The piece adopts a traditional brown tone reminiscent of the color of soil, exuding a sense of solemnity and stability. The sinuous curves create a flowing effect resembling water ripples and vortex patterns, inheriting the predominant hue of traditional coil pottery brown and the decorative style characterized by flowing linear patterns, reflecting elements of the swirling patterns originating from Majiayao culture. Through the systematic distribution of color variations and curved lines, it evokes the terraced field effect and the gradual accumulation of sediment, while also embodying the characteristic deformation of cloud patterns seen in ancient ceramics.
