说明：Two crackle glazed jars placed inside a rattan flower basket with long loop handle before a branch of camellia and narcissus. The jars are filled with petals and blossoms rendered in iron-red enamel. While soft shading in iron-red is employed for the camellia flowers, the narcissi are rendered in a simplified outline. In contrast, there is particular attention to the gnarled branch in underglaze blue with delicate modulation and details. The flat rim is decorated with a continuous band of ruyi-heads.
