Fiziksel açıklama
Bottle painted in two shades of blue and black. A diaper of petals fills the flattened rim and its underside. A bird, a moon and flowers decorate the neck, while a band of four scrolling flowers covers the shoulder. Part of a rosette with ribbons fills the space under the spout and its double flower spray. An elongated duck, a flower with rocks, a bird and an elongated deer by a fence, fill the four moulded panels of the body.
