A handpainted porcelain pen holder with undulating contours that stands on three rectangular feet. The holder is decorated with a tree branch with leaves of various tones of green and bordered with a scalloped golden line that in the center and corners becomes scrolled. The flowing edges of the holder and feet are also defined by gold gilding. The whole thing is glazed over.
