Blue floral patterns adorn this bulb-shaped white flask made of imitation porcelain. The round opening at the top of the flask has a low lip. The rounded vessel tapers from wide shoulders to a narrower flared foot at the bottom. There are two handles on either side of the top opening and a short spout near the rim directly between them. The rim is decorated with dots set within squares, and the handles are painted with blue stripes.
