About this work

This is a ceramic pot with two handles and a fitted lid. The pot is mostly white with dark blue painted flowers and leaves. On top of the lid sits a small yellow bird, perched on green leaves. The pot looks old, with some wear and chipping on the edges. The blue paint stands out against the white background, making the flowers look like they’re part of the pot itself.
