The plate is decorated with festoons of multi-colored flowers, both in the center of its white ground and within the interwoven spaces of the green ribands, while the rim is adorned with gold flower sprays.

This green riband design is also found on “Knife Handle with Green Ribands (manche de couteau, à décor rubans verts à pois d’or, slide 18).
