A white porcelain teapot with a bulbous body features a painted landscape of a man in red and a woman in gray seated under a tree. The vessel lacks its lid, exposing a gold-patterned rim. To the left, a spout resembles a bird's head with a gold beak. To the right, an ornate handle curves with gold-painted ridges. Pink floral sprigs and gold patterns decorate the smooth white surface.
