Round tureen with lid and two handles in the form of a fluted circular segment; the flutes are separated by red lines. The tureen has a low footring decorated with a band of geometric ornament in red. The domed lid, with a projecting rim, has a round flat knob, decorated with flutes in blue and gold. On the rim a geometric motif in red; on top, around the knob, green leaves and red ribbons. The tureen and lid are decorated on both sides with a large blue rock with plants and flowers in red, green, manganese purple and gold. In the blue, always a round reserve decorated with flowers. On the lid above the rock a field with red lattice work. Inside the tureen a sprig with flowers. Along the lid rim a gold border. Marked with AK in blue. The tureen, broken and restored, has suffered greatly, probably during firing; brown spots on the wall. Tureen stolen in 1982, lid present.
