Fiziksel açıklama
resist dyed, block, printed plain weave cotton, probably machine woven, probably originally glazed. Dark red ground with alternating small and larger botehs in off-set rows, facing in opposite direction in alternate rows. There are two and one partial rows and five complete or partial motifs per row. The small motif has a line of blue segments giving the impression of a bowl. There is a three-stemmed sprig with light blue and white flowers. The larger motif is similar but has a more substantial bowl or basket base and has two separate stems, the longest one ending in a semi-circular light blue, green and brown carnation. Almost identical to 1065/45-1883 and similar to 1065/15-1883 and 1065/27-1883.
