Famille rose is a technique where designs are drawn on the surface of ceramics in opaque overglaze enamels. In this piece, an arabesque pattern scrolls across a yellow background. Among the arabesques, there are three round windows with depictions of lotuses, chrysanthemums, and peonies. Butterflies flutter about these flowers, creating the image of a tranquil, clear day in spring or autumn.
