A large, ceramic container characterized by a rounded, bulbous body and a relatively narrow opening. Regular storage pots are used for storing various objects, while lidded ones are used to store food, grains, water and other contents. Unlike vases, they have a simpler, more utilitarian appearance, are often plain or minimally decorated, and are almost always larger.
