Saucer
The saucer is complete. It is circular in shape. The wall is flared at the top, the rim is slightly flared, and the top of the rim is plain. The wall curves at the base towards the sock, which is slightly domed. It rests on a ring-shaped foot. The underside of the base is recessed and flat; the decoration is applied by underglaze printing (Transfer printed); the decoration is blue. It is oriental in style. The decoration under the inner rim consists of a ribbon decorated with a latticework whose latticework overlaps in places. The background decoration, which extends slightly over the wall, consists of a lake scene with two islands. The main island supports a dwelling, rocks and two trees, one with full pointed balls, probably a pine, and the other with empty pearls, probably a prunus. Rocks emerge in front of the island. On the second island, in the background, stands a tiered, tree-lined pagoda; rocks emerge in front of the island. The background is slightly blurred.
