A pale yellow porcelain teapot features a bulbous body with a lobed white reserve containing a painted bouquet of a pink rose and purple blossoms. A white spout and looping handle are accented with magenta scrollwork. Topping the vessel, a yellow lid displays a sculpted white rose finial and a small floral painting. The teapot's rounded form tapers to a short white base, mirrored by the lid's gently domed shape.
