White vase with a narrow mouth and a wide, rounded body that tapers towards the base. The vase features a design of plum blossoms and bamboo in black. The blossoms have multiple small petals and are clustered along curved branches. Some of the branches are bare. The background of the image is gray and transitions from dark at the top to light at the bottom. The vase is centered and casts a slight shadow on the surface below.
