A white cylindrical porcelain jar features gold scalloped bands circling the top and bottom rims. A central bouquet depicts a large pink blossom, a red and yellow flower, and small purple and blue sprigs nestled among green leaves. To the right, two small floral motifs, a yellow flower near the top and blue buds near the base, accent the smooth surface. The vessel sits against a dark, graduated background.
