About this work

This is a round dish with a light, off-white background. Painted on it are clusters of green leaves, dark red berries, and blue flowers arranged in a loose pattern. The rim has a border of smaller blue flowers and vines, while the center holds a bigger, more detailed floral design. The dish looks hand-painted, with colors that stand out against the plain background. The mix of blues, greens, and reds creates a simple but lively look. If you like this kind of painted pottery, look up kaolin next—it’s the clay often used for dishes like this.
