Fiziksel açıklama
Elongated octagonal sweetmeat tray in white earthenware painted in underglaze blue, with a square imitation Chinese character mark in blue. A standing figure is painted in the centre of the tray. He is wearing a turban with a feather sticking out of the top of it. Holding a long necked bottle, he pours liquid into a bowl that he holds in his left hand. The figure is surrounded by lotus flowers and other flowers. The figure is wearing a robe and double breasted tunic with belt. The well is plain and a zig-zag pattern fills the flange. The exterior rim has a Chinese style and is decorated with more flowers.
