Bowl. Hard-paste porcelain painted in blue, green, turquoise, yellow, aubergine, iron-red and black enamels of bright clear tone. The steeply rounded sides are supported on a high, very slightly tapered foot encircled by a green key-fret band.

The rim is encircled by a border of varying diaper pattern reserved with six vignettes alternately enclosing peaches, pomegranates and finger citrons, the Three Abundances.
