After a comparative study of the ceramic holding pots unearthed from the tombs of the Tang and the Five Dynasties, it was found that compared with the holding pots of the Tang Dynasty, the structure of the holding pots of the Five Dynasties was more reasonable, especially the pot flow was significantly longer, which was convenient for practical use. This blue glaze holding pot is the best example.
