Fiziksel açıklama	Plate of fritware, with imitation Chinese decoration painted in blue and black under a clear glaze. Imitation Chinese square mark in black Eight panels alternate on the flange with eight small roundels with lozenge-shaped rosettes. They come in four different patterns: swastikas, scrolls with floet, diapers and a pair of birds in flight. The well is plain. A seven-bracket Kraak frame surrounds the central composition of a nervous-looking saddled horse standing on a mound with stripes and under a tree which reaches into a Kraak cloud with hanging branches. A strange rock with a cascade and a tuft of grass lines the left side. A small bird flies across the centre. The outer flange has nine panels each with a cetntral lozenge and four dots. The outer well is decorated with two double branches two of them carrying a sketchy bird. Crossed leaves act as dividers. There is a slight dip in the centre of the dish.
