A white ceramic vessel features a flaring cylindrical body and a narrow, tiered base. On the body, hand-painted figures with light skin tones include a central adult in a blue robe holding a fan. To the left, a child in red and blue reaches forward. To the right, another child stands near a stand and small white animal. A reddish vine border circles the rim, and simple patterns line the base.
