A circular white porcelain lid features raised ridges radiating from a central finial sculpted as a pink flower bud with a green stem and leaf. Beside the handle, a small hole punctures the glossy surface. Sprays of pink, purple, blue, and orange wildflowers are painted around the fluted body. A thin gold line borders the outer rim, finishing the elegant design of this teapot cover.
