The vase, by the artist Meissen, titled "Vase", is white with vertical ribbing. It has an orange border around the rim and handles. Two handles protrude from the middle section on either side. A colorful scene on the front displays a woman wearing a pink dress and blue skirt with an orange shawl. She stands in front of a fence. Flowers are on either side of her. The scene is outlined in orange. The background of the image is gray with a darker shade at the top.
