The pinkish red ware is decorated on the front in its entirety with a repeating six-sided pattern (in dark green, blue/green and a salmon pink color) on a white (slip) background. The back has a plain white background with dark green lines encircling the rim and foot, but also has eight vertical dark green lines extending from rim to foot, with simple polychrome leaf patterns within each boundary. Both sides have a clear overglaze. Center of foot has a decorated area, with a white background, dark lines as either design or signature, and a clear overglaze. Rest of foot area is covered in a dark brown crust layer and does not appear to be glazed. Foot ring has two drilled holes near each other.
