Description
This is a big shallow bowl with a side curved faintly. There are seven hexagonal frame patterns, and they are linked with red lines. Their order is not uniform but expresses dynamic taste with thickly applied red color.

In the center of the bottom of the bowl, a simple stream and chrysanthemum design is painted in five colors.
