Description
This placid-looking, plump jar and lid are entirely covered with a Sarasa pattern, which is one of the artist''s best designs, in which he created simplified four-petalled flowers changed from five-petalled flower of the chasuble. The decorative space is opulently developed taking advantage of the bright contrast between red and blue.
