Description
A dragon encircled by sprays of flowers and a butterfly enliven the interior of this fluted bowl. The exterior has similar decoration, with touches of gold on some petals. The flutes enhance both the visual and tactile experience; their tapered forms draw the eye from the edges inward and provide ridges for the hands.
