The Plate by an unknown artist depicts a round, shallow dish with a wide mouth and a narrow foot. The plate is dark-colored with a lighter-colored rim. A large dragon is centered on the plate, surrounded by a circle. The dragon has a long body with scales, a head with a mouth and nostrils, and a curled tail. The dragon's body extends outward from the center circle in a curved line. The plate's background features a design of flames and clouds. The overall design on the plate is in a lighter shade than the dark background.
