Tin-glazed earthenware painted in polychrome with a bird amongs flowers and foliage and radiating borders
Buff earthenware, tin-glazed bluish-white, and painted in blue, green, and red. Circular with curved sides and fifty-eight grooves in the rim, creating a fluted appearance, standing on a footring pierced by two suspension holes. Decorated in the middle with a circular medallion framed by two concentric blue circles enclosing a bird perching among flowers and foliage. This is surrounded by a radiating border of stylized leaves and plants within a shaped outline with an area of blue ground between it and the rim. The rim has a border of almond-shaped motifs outlined in blue and red, with small green and red plants in the spaces and a blue line on the edge. On the reverse there is a small red B-like mark within the footring.
