The bowl is complete, except for two small chips on the rim. It is circular in shape, with an undulating rim at the top. In cross-section, the wall is flared at the top, curving towards the bottom, which is flat and rests on a massive ring-shaped foot, the base of which is unglazed ; The decoration is hand-painted in polychrome blue underglaze, and red and green overglaze. The painted decoration covers the inner wall and base, as well as the outer wall. It features a plant motif. The decoration on the wall begins below the inner rim, where it is bordered by a wide wavy line painted in blue; the decoration extends to the bottom, where it is bordered by a double circle. The decoration on the wall is divided into six zones, composed of two alternately repeated motifs. One zone is truncated cone-shaped, with two fins at the top, and features a red background decorated with two four-pointed stars in reserve. The central motif, a stylized plant, is outlined and painted in blue, with a circle in reserve. The other area, in reserve, has the shape of an open fan: lined with a red terrace, it features a red vegetal motif painted in red and green, as well as a red butterfly. The center features a plant and floral motif traced and painted in blue. The outer wall is decorated with six stylized plant motifs. The lower part of the outer wall and the perimeter of the foot are adorned with a horizontal blue fillet.
