Saucer
The saucer is complete. It is circular in shape. The wall is flared at the top, and the rim is plain. The wall extends to the bottom, which is flat. It rests on a ring-shaped foot. The underside of the base is recessed and flat. There is a mark painted in red under the bottom near the foot: 128. Opposite these numbers is a symbol painted in sequence, consisting of an X with two dots ; The decoration is painted over and under glaze. Underglaze, it is dark blue; overglaze, it is red and orange-red, with gold highlights, in the Japanese Imari style, with vegetal and floral motifs. The painted decoration is visible on the inner wall, or on the entire wall and on the base. On the wall and part of the base, it consists of a dark blue background with three flowers in reserve under the rim and three medallions in reserve on the wall, all arranged in a triangle and alternating. Below the inner rim, the blue background is covered with a gilded fillet. The three leaves point downwards; their outline is enhanced by gilding and they feature veins painted in gold. From these leaves emerge leafy stems in gilding, and from them hang stylized leafy stems of decreasing size. The medallions are poly-lobed and gilded around the edges, each containing a three-leaf plant element painted dark blue at the base, flanked by stylized horizontal elements outlined in orange-red and painted orange-peach with gold highlights. From the top of the plant element emerge four or five slender stems outlined in orange-red; they are adorned with three sequentially painted leaves, gilded tendrils and one or two flowers painted in orange-red and peach, with gold highlights, and in dark blue with gilding. The central decoration is a circular medallion painted in gilding, housing a ribbed stem in gilding, with a central flower with pointed petals, in dark blue with gilding.
