The saucer is complete; two breaks have been repaired with glue. It is circular in shape. The wall is flared at the top, the rim is straight and the top of the rim is plain and beveled on the outside. The wall curves at the base towards the flat bottom. It rests on an annular foot; the underside of the bottom is recessed and flat. The inner base shows traces of wear ; The decoration is hand-painted in polychrome of pink, red, green, black and blue on a glaze. It features a floral motif. Under the inner rim, there is a fillet traced in red under which extend five polylobed masses traced in dark pink and trimmed with a pearl lattice painted in dark pink on a pink ground. Beneath these masses are two green-painted pearls framing a third central pearl beneath a pink-painted flower. These masses are linked by a wavy garland traced in red, adorned in the center with a group of blue-painted pearls and green-painted leaves. The main decoration on the background is a group of flowers painted in pink and red and surrounded by leaves painted in blue, traced in black and painted in green. This group is surrounded by a ring of four different leafy and flowering stems arranged in a cross, with flowers painted pink and red and leaves painted blue, outlined in black and painted green, between which is inserted a leaf outlined in black and painted green.
