A white porcelain broth bowl rests on a short circular base with two scrolling handles accented in gold. A thin gold band lines the rim. The bowl's exterior is decorated with blue and gold motifs of a bird on a vine and large flowers. Gold paint overlays delicate blue lines, creating a textured, layered effect against the smooth surface.
