The jar is white with a blue floral design on the front. There are two flowers, one on the left and one on the right, both with blue petals and centers. The background of the image is a gradient from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. The jar casts a slight shadow on the surface below it. The jar appears to be titled "Jar (Tsubo) with Chrysanthemums" and the artist is unknown.
