The rimmed foot supports a broad, cylindrical body that splays in a curve towards the wide top rim. The plant ornaments of diagonally blossoming almond branches are embossed in light blue and white base, painted in dark blue. This motif is repeated on the broad, incised frieze on the shoulder line, on top of a background enriched with vertical lines.
