Fiziksel açıklama
Tile of glazed grey fritware painted in dark blue and turquoise-blue on a while slip. Decorated with a shaped panel, in the middle of which is an ogee-formed compartment containing arabesques on a dark blue ground. The spandrels at the top and bottom of the panel are filled in with arabesques, and the remaining surface is decorated with conventional flowers and serrated leaves on curved interlacing stems. Round the edge is a narrow border of guilloche pattern.
