Colorful still life with a patterned vase on a red tray and a kettle with a small tree and bowl on the side. The patterned vase has a wide mouth and a narrow base with various shapes and designs on it. A white napkin wrapped with a red string and two chopsticks are placed on the tray alongside the vase. A black kettle with a curved handle on the left features an image of pears. A small white plate on the floor contains an indiscernible object. A small tree in a white planter box with green leaves and a red trunk sits on a table behind the vase. The background features a light brown color with some darker brown edges. Japanese characters are written vertically on the upper left corner of the image.
