A Chinese-export porcelain bowl base/body/rim sherd with blurry blue underglaze painted motif around the exterior body and a brown dressed rim. The exterior rim has a rough, trellis-like scroll border with fish roe decoration and hanging flowers. The central motif is similar to a pavilion landscape, with a figure on a bridge, trees, a body of water, three small boats with a figure in each, and a tea house. The bowl has a gently scalloped rim and the body is double-curved form. The footring is a high wedge and is unglazed. There is no interior decoration. Consists of ten mended sherds and two sherds that mend but are not mended to vessel.
