The exterior is decorated with a traditional Tsuru and Matsu (Crane and Pine) motif, depicting two white cranes in flight with gold-toned wing highlights against silver-toned pine branches. The underside of the base retains a gold foil label printed with the words Fine China and JAPAN flanking a square logo containing three curved lines.
