Description

Shallow round dish with flat base and very low foot ring.  Wood base coated with layers of black lacquer and inlaid with mother-of-pearl and powdered shall use to represent the ground.  A landscape scene fills the bottom of the dish with two figures - one pointing into the distance - on a terrace with an overhanging willow tree, rocks and stylized plants and the moon overhead.  Round the edge is a border of alternating small and tiny diamond shaped pieced of inlay and encircling the sides a band of alternating "V"s with a flower in the centre of each one.
