Fiziksel açıklama
The sand sprinkler has white lined tips of leaves decorating the flange of the opening. Pointed and round leaf tips line the neck. Five reserve-painted cranes in flight among clouds decorate the lobed area of the shoulder. Irregular overlapping scales indicate the joining area between the shoulder and the body. Half the body is also reserve-painted with a series of cranes in flight with their heads turned back. They are separated by florets, and clouds fill the rest of the space. The lower part is plain until a band of overlapping panels looking almost as waves.
