A tall, thin, molded earthenware vase with a flared, wide lip and white floral and leaf decoration against a black glazed background. The unique flowers are portrayed as if viewed from above and arranged in individual vignettes. The flowers are intricately outlined in white with numerous petals and resemble stylized roses, crysanthemums, and sunflowers. The foot of the vase is shaped in an inverted echo of the main volume’s silhouette, with a black ringed attachment. The inside decoration in a white, cloud-like design is barely revealed due to the angle of the image, and the vase casts a light shadow toward the viewer's left side.
