The unusual shape of this vase appears to be based on earlier Tang dynasty prototypes, such as two glass bottles of related shape illustrated by An Jiayao, "The Early Glass of China", R.H. Brill and J.H. Martin (eds.), Scientific Research in Early Chinese Glass, Corning Museum of Glass, 1984, pp. 13-14, figs. 17 and 18. The first is of green glass from the Tang dynasty tomb of Li Tai, Yunnan, Hubei province; the second is a small bottle from a Tang stupa at Ningan, Heilongjiang province.
This vase was produced by a method known as flashing, in which a layer of glass of deep colour is laid over a clear inner layer, in order to enhance the transparency and clarity of the colour of the glass.
