DESCRIPTIVE DATA
----------------
object type: Soft-paste porcelain decorated with green ground colour, painting in blue, green, yellow, dark pink, red, and purple enamels, and gilded. The cup has a double-curved outline and entwined branch handle. The saucer is circular with a five-lobed edge, concave curving sides and a slight well in the centre. There is a hole for suspension in the footring of the saucer. The upper part of the cup and the outer part of the interior of the saucer have green grounds divided from the white lower and inner parts by trailing sprays of gold foliage and flowers, forming a wave pattern. Below, or within, in the arcs formed by the dips in the waves, are sprays of polychrome flowers. There are bands of gilding round the foot of the cup and of the saucer and dentilated bands round the lip of the cup, the outer edge of the saucer and the edge of the well. The leaf terminals of the handle are gilded, and there are two broad patches of gilding on the handle itself.
