The Kraak dish is decorated in underglaze cobalt blue with a characteristic panelled design. The central octagonal cartouche depicts a goose standing beside the water among luxuriant flowering lotus plants, with another goose in flight above a rocky outcrop in the distance. The scene is surrounded by scale motifs and fretwork in reverse decoration.
The rim is divided into eight panels, decorated with flowers, peaches, and precious objects. The panels are separated by narrow divisions containing diaper and dot motifs, with similar patterns above and below encircling the central scene.
The reverse follows a similar panelled arrangement, with cartouches containing lingzhi sprays and narrow divisions filled with stylised cloud motifs.
此件克拉克青花盤採用典型的分格開光裝飾。盤心八方形開光內繪荷塘雙雁圖，一隻雁立於水畔，四周荷花盛放、荷葉繁茂，遠處山石上方另有一雁飛翔。開光外環飾魚鱗錦紋及青花地留白回紋。
口沿分為八組開光，內繪花卉、桃實及各式雜寶。各開光之間以狹長分格相隔，內飾錦地及圓點紋，盤心畫面上下亦環飾相近紋樣。
盤背同樣採用分格布局，開光內繪折枝靈芝，其間的狹長分格填飾雲紋。
