The rounded sides set over a slightly tapered foot and rising to a gently everted rim, the interior centered with an emerald-green-enamelled five-claw dragon writhing in pursuit of a ‘flaming pearl’, flame scrolls emanating from the powerful body, all surrounded by a green-enamelled ring at the cavetto and another at the rim, the motif repeated on the exterior with two dragons striding, the base glazed. Period: 19th/20th century. Diameter: 17.5 cm.
