Plate
The plate is complete; there are a few chips on the rim. The plate is circular, with a plain rim. In cross-section, the rim is in line with the marli, which slopes towards the bottom; the wall is low and curved towards the bottom, which is flat. The reverse of the plate is almost truncated cone-shaped, with a concave bottom and an angular base. The body is pinkish-beige and covered with a bluish-white glaze. Three traces of linear, triangular beads are visible under the marli. There are flaws in the enamel on the face and reverse, including soot or very fine sand on the inner base. The decoration is hand-painted in blue underglaze. It is geometric and floral. The decoration on the border consists of a fillet near the edge, which is decorated with a wavy line and two rows of pearls on either side of this line. In the center of the background is a scrolled flower atop a leafy stem.
