Fiziksel açıklama
Tile in the shape of an eight-pointed star, fritware. A smaller eight-pointed is drawn within the central field and surrounded by a circle which is outlined in blue. Simple leaf forms fill the outer and inner points of the star, and the whole border area is coloured cobalt blue. Within the inner star, the field is decorated in reserve against a ground of golden-brown lustre. Two spotted deer with small horns lean into the centre of the tile from the right and left sides, their bodies "off-stage" so that only their heads and necks are visible. Simple palmettes fill the rest of the ground.
