White porcelain compote with gold, green, and blue decoration. The compote has a wide, flared mouth with a wavy rim. The body is primarily white with vertical gold lines on the upper portion. Green leaves and small blue flowers are painted on the lower body and base. Gold bands encircle the compote near the base and the bottom of the foot. The base is square. The compote is by artist Herend.
