A white-glazed ceramic teapot features a rounded body with swirling vertical ridges and a narrow gold-rimmed base. A raised geometric pattern circles the shoulder, below a lid topped by a sculpted pink rosebud. Painted floral sprays in blue, pink, and yellow, accompanied by small insects, decorate the sides. A curved handle with gold accents sits opposite a spout adorned with gold leaf patterns.
