Saucer
The saucer is complete; breaks have been repaired with glue and the inner surface repainted in places. It is circular in shape. The wall is flared at the top, the rim straight and the top of the rim plain. The wall curves at the base towards the sock, which is flat. It rests on an annular foot; the underside of the bottom is recessed and flat. There is a small incised ring under the bottom. There is a blue-painted mark under the base: C or empty crescent with a vertical bar; The decoration is hand-painted. It is blue with an oriental motif (Cannonball). Under the inner rim, the decoration is a ribbon made of double braces with spikes; it is underlined by a fillet. The inner background features an oriental scene with river, islands, pavilion and trees. The main island features a stylized rock with a tree in the center. It is flanked on the right by two trees, a plum and a pine. To the left is a pavilion with a roof featuring two chimneys. On the secondary island stands a tiered pagoda, surrounded by fences and trees. The water at the foot of this island is lined with three small solid circular rocks.
