The compressed ovoid body rests on a flat, slightly countersunk base and rises to a very short tapered rim encircling the wide mouth. The exterior is delicately painted with two flowering prunus branches, rising side by side from one spot near the base, overlapping each other and extending round the sides.

The flowers and buds are in varying tones of white, tinged with coral pink, with veined petals and stamen in yellow and pale blue.
