Saucer

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

White saucer with scalloped edge. A gold circle inside with a green border lines the inside center. A black logo that looks like a "W" made of two "V"s is present in the middle. The circle around it is gold with green outlining and has rays extending out from it. A line of blue text, blurry and hard to read, lines the bottom of the gold circle. A border of oval-shaped labels with black text, connected by gold dots, encircles the saucer. The background is dark at the top and light at the bottom. The title of the saucer is "Saucer" by artist "Wedgwood".
