| Reverse description | A richly colorized Chinese famille-rose porcelain vase occupies the central field, decorated with elaborate floral and foliate motifs on a yellow ground, a red and gold banded collar, and a central medallion depicting goldfish swimming among waves rendered in full polychrome enamel-style color. The vase is set against a high-relief matte-finished background featuring a coiling dragon design composed of traditional Chinese fretwork and scrolling patterns, creating a striking contrast between the vivid color inlay and the sculpted silver ground. |
