Franz production is executed in Dehua, Fujian, using molded porcelain bodies with hand-applied overglaze coloration, producing the characteristically soft celadon greens and light blue pool. The 13.25-inch scale aligns with the firm’s charger-format display pieces marketed through international galleries in the early 2000s.

The biomorphic modeling references Art Nouveau naturalism, emphasizing fluid rim transitions and animated amphibian forms. Suitable as a stand-mounted presentation plate or lateral service surface.
