Crystal, ink, and watercolours; with a slightly concave lip andprotruding concave foot surrounded by a flattened footrim; painted on one main side with a scholar in fisherman’s garb and boat in the reeds beneath an overhanging cliff, with sailing boats visible beyond the reeds and the river valley stretching into the distance between towering peaks, with rooftops nestling in their foothills, the narrow sides with two vignettes, one of orchids, the other of bamboo, both growing beside rocks, the other main side with a poem in regular script with a strong clerical-script flavour
