Rectangular form of fine white porcelain: vertical sides first swell from low unglazed foot, then curve in slightly at rim; indented corners. Pattern: divided diagonally from point near upper-right corner to point near lower-left corner; area to left glazed in glossy red-brown, which wraps from the inside over the outside surface to top of foot; area to right painted in underglaze blue with a landform supporting a composition of bamboo, pine, and prunus, with a cloud form above; on each of the two adjacent outside surfaces a motif of two cash with ribbons in underglaze blue; all shapes rendered with dark blue outlines filled with light blue washes; all covered in a minutely pitted white glaze. On glazed base, well rendered underglaze blue characters read 'Dai men nen sai' meaning 'Made in the Ming Dynasty' (Chinese dynasty, 1368-1644). Junction between brown and white glazes marred on outside by a grey-brown splotch extending over foot to base; repaired crack running through sidewall in area of landform painting.
