The plate measures 19.4 cm in diameter and is currently housed at the Fitzwilliam Museum, University of Cambridge. The plate features a wavy landscape motif with a cream-colored background adorned with delicate featheredge patterns. Its circular shape adds to its charm while the glaze gives it an elegant finish. The scene depicted on the plate showcases a serene British lake where a man is seen fishing amidst beautiful surroundings.
