A band of magic mushrooms scroll around the the lower band of plantain leaves. Bands of fine engraving, barely visible in photographs, complete the vase. The white band below the rim is engraved with key fret. Two further bands to the main body are finely engraved - one with scrolling lotus and the other with overlapping chevrons.
