Fiziksel açıklama
Dish of fritware, painted in blue and black under a clear glaze. Eight panels with alternating cranes in flight and peach garlands cover the flange and the well. The centre is filled with two ducks in flight, two butterflies and several dots. Below, a tufted tail lion ambles on a variegated and partly striped ground including leafy plants and flowers. To the right a flowering lotus branch stretches towards three tufts of grass at the top of the centre. Three further tufts of grass and rocks occupy the middle plain. Three fine stems with one large and several small leaves decorated the outside. There are three marks in black on the base.
