Saucer
The saucer is complete. It is circular in shape. The wall is flared at the top, and the rim is straight. The wall curves at the base towards the sock, which is flat. It rests on a wide annular foot. The underside of the base is recessed and flat. The foot is beveled and free of glaze ; The decoration covers the outer face of the saucer, as well as the inner rim and base. The decoration is of the scenic lacustrine type, with an external brown coating known as Batavia. It is hand-painted in underglaze blue. The ribbon under the inner rim is decorated with a string of oval pearls with a central core. The inner background features a body of water with small sailing boats and a rowboat from which a fisherman is casting his net. The water is bordered by two islands, the one on the right supporting a house and the one on the left, a willow tree. Mountains rise in the distance and birds flutter in the sky. The entire outer surface is covered with a shiny brown, iron-based coating that also covers the top of the rim.
