On the outer side of this spectacular orange dish, three fierce monsters chase each other in perpetual circles. Fortunately, they will never catch each other, and the tranquility of the dish will be preserved. The shape of this piece is very pleasing, the colors are deep and rich, and the details are surprising: on the underside are swirling circular patterns not generally meant to be seen.
