Fiziksel açıklama
A sophisticated band of reciprocal S-scrolls and half florets follows the brackets of the rim. The well contains a scroll of lotuses and other flowers with veined leaves. An eight-bracket Kraak frame enhances the central composition of two figures dressed in robes with long sleeves on either side of a gigantic decorated vase with three flowers. The group is set against a panelled balustrade with tripartite vegetal tufts above the head of the two figures, one of which wears a hat.
