Panel of four tiles, fritware, painted in colours on a white slip and covered with a clear glaze. The pattern consists of a vase in the centre decorated with arabesque ornament and containing sprays of carnations, tulips and irises, symmetrically arranged. On either side of the vase is a long stem covered with small blue flowers. Along the top and bottom of the panel is a border of white interlacing arabesques on a turquoise-blue ground. The whole of the decoration is outlined in dark green.
