A square porcelain dish features slightly bowed sides and a thin, brownish-orange rim. Centered in the basin, blue underglaze depicts a dandelion plant with leafy stems and fan-shaped flowers rising from rounded rocks. To the right, thin jagged lines suggest distant mountains. The white glaze creates a smooth sheen that catches the light.
