A floral-patterned porcelain lid with a circular, domed body centers on a knob decorated with concentric blue and red bands. Vibrant orange plum blossoms and large blue peonies sprout amidst dark blue foliage and pale green leaves across a white ground. A blue floral motif sits atop the knob, while a delicate border of red and blue crisscross lines finishes the outer rim.
