A scalloped white porcelain dish features delicate overglaze enamel illustrations. At the bottom right, a vibrant, stylized green and blue rock sits beside a branch of orange blossoms. A tree with drooping green and orange leaves arcs over the scene from behind the rock. To the left, two small blue and green birds fly through the open white space. A thin yellow band marks the ground line at the base.
