Notes
A large dish with a wide, flat base, sloping walls with sharp angles, colored green, light blue, dark blue, and light red (quartz paste). It features designs of intertwined, climbing flowering branches, through which bluebell flowers appear in dark blue or red, respectively. Among the roses at the lower end of the bottom of the plate appear three large roses of peony, lavender, and lilac. The upper end of the plate is decorated with a traditional drawing representing “a wave and a rock” in a simplified form. On its walls, palm trees and roses were painted in dark blue and glowing green.
