The vase has a small opening at the top and a rounded base. It features a white floral design with flowers and leaves. The design consists of several clusters of flowers with five petals each, arranged in a random pattern around the vase. The background of the image is light gray. A small ruler or measuring scale is placed in front of the vase, and a small white tag with the number "684" is visible to the right of the vase. A label at the bottom reads "THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART". The title of the image is "Jar" by an unknown artist.
