Fiziksel açıklama
Basin of fritware, painted in blue and black under a clear glaze. A double line marks the outer rim. The four bracketed panels enclose ribbons with either a pair of scrolls or an artemisia leaf. Double ribbons hang from ruyi heads and act as dividers. The outer decoration is repeated inside the well with more discreet flowers and leaves in panels touching the line round the centre. A bird perched on rocks with leaves is overlooked by a flying insect. The mark inside the base ring is a minuscule A.
