DescriptionShallow, oval, white vitrified china dish with an undulating rim and underglaze, printed decoration. The decoration consists of a border at the rim made up of dark green, almost brown, rectangular geometric shapes with fine geometric patterns in blue and tan filling some of the spaces created by the rectangles. The remainder of the decoration is floral, with two pink flowers and green leaves in the center of the dish, surrounded by four clusters of pink flowers and green leaves evenly spaced around the rim, just below the border. All but two of the floral motifs are outlined in black.
