Inspired by traditional leather vessels used by northern nomadic peoples, the ewers feature a flattened oval body, raised arched handles, and compact spouts, creating a balanced and elegant silhouette. The rich green glaze covers the finely shaped bodies, while carved floral decoration adds a refined decorative element. The form reflects the cultural exchange between the nomadic traditions of the Liao Empire and the advanced ceramic craftsmanship of northern China. Examples of this type are highly valued by museums and collectors for their historical importance and their connection to Liao-period daily life and court culture.
