Fiziksel açıklama
Plate of fritware, painted in cobalt blue under a clear glaze. The illusion of a lobed rim is given by a painted line along the flange. A zigzag pattern is created by using single reed frames for the lotus-and-egret motif. The waves are a succession of horizontal lines punctuated by dots. Only part of the well is plain. A double line surrounds the centre which contains half a vase on the left, from which emerging flowers fill the remaining space. The body of the vase is painted with a series of horizontal islands. Three leafy S-stems with a central lotus leaf decorate the outside. Two small crossed leaves act as dividers. Imitation Chinese "tassel" mark in blue.
