Plate
The plate is complete; there is some enamel missing around the rim and there is a crack. The plate is circular in shape, with an undulating rim. In cross-section, the marli, which slopes towards the bottom and is slightly concave, is slightly swollen near the rim; the wall is very low and curved towards the bottom, which is flat. On the reverse side, the plate has a large, flat bottom that merges with the wall. The wall is flared and the marli is flared and rounded. The body is beige in color and covered with a glossy white glaze. Three traces of linear, triangular beads are visible under the marli. There are slight flaws in the enamel. There is a blue painted mark on the reverse: X. The support point and bottom of the plate show traces of wear. The inner base of the plate shows small linear marks; the decoration is molded and hand-painted in blue underglaze. It features embroidery and floral motifs. The molded decoration is visible on the rim and marli. The outline is wavy; the decoration on the marli appears as slight swellings perpendicular to the outline and aligned with the concave parts. The decoration is painted on the marli and on the background. The marli is decorated with a band between two fillets near the edge, and another bordering two alternately repeated embroidery elements. Each is made up of mirror-repeated elements, starting from a central element. The background decoration is floral. It consists of a leafy stem with thorns, topped by two similar flowers, which appear to be roses.
