A set of four blue-and-white circular porcelain dishes. Each with rounded sides everted at the lip; and painted on the base, the spurious six-character reign-mark of Chenghua (r.1465–87) within a double ring. Round the outside are two scaly, running, five-clawed dragons pursuing flaming pearls among clouds; and inside in a roundel, three clouds; and at the rim, a border of ruyi-head scrollwork.
