Cut

The cut is complete. It is circular in shape, with a flared rim and corrugated edge. The wall flares towards the rim and curves towards the flat bottom. On the reverse, it rests on a ring-shaped foot, the base of which is free of glaze. The center is recessed and flat. The foot is imprinted with fine gravel. There is a slight defect in the glaze on the inner base. The rim has lost some of its glaze ; The decoration is molded and hand-painted in blue on the front and back of the object. The molded decoration is in the form of a medallion in relief on the inside, and recessed on the outside. The painted decoration is vegetal, in the Kraak style from China. The inner surface of the object is entirely decorated. There is a wavy line near the edge. The wall is decorated with a row of oval medallions with pointed tops; their outer perimeter is made of a double fillet with a reserved center. Each medallion features a leafy, flowering stem, alternating between two different models. Between these medallions are scrolls. The central decoration is surrounded by concentric octagons with concave sides and pointed corners, one solid and the other in reserve. The main decoration consists of leafy stems and flowers on terraces. On the reverse, the bowl is lined with compartments; they are delimited by a net, and closed at the ends by a line, the one near the edge being wavy and the other, double, at the junction of the wall with the foot. They are lined with four pearls arranged around a central fifth.
