vase-shaped
Narrow-necked and bulbous
Vase-shaped describes something with the form of a vase—typically narrow at the base, swelling outward in the middle, and tapering again toward the top.
The term appears in botany for certain plant structures, in architecture for columns or balusters, and in describing pottery or decorative objects: a vase-shaped urn, vase-shaped flowers.
