It is circular with shallow, curved sides and a high footring, sloping inwards slightly. Inside the bowl is a flowering prunus tree growing inwards from the edge of the rim. On the exterior of the bowl there are three floral sprays, each with a central peony flanked by stems, with one bud at the tip. The footring is decorated with a continuous border of interlocking cash.
