The center has three Chinese figures in a garden by a fence, one figure with a closed fan in his left hand reaches out to receive a dish being handed to him by one of the figures as a fourth figure stands watching from the edge of the wide flaring rim.  The rest of the rim has rockwork and vegetation.
