Each of the bowls was with deep rounded sides rising from a short straight foot to a gently flared rim, the exterior was vividly decorated with a green and a red dragon striding in pursuit of flaming pearls, interrupted by a pair of descending phoenix, all below a band of bajixiang and ruyi emblems, the interior with a medallion enclosing a red five-clawed dragon writhing next to a flaming pearl. Both bases were inscribed with an underglaze blue six-character mark within a double circle.
