A realistic white bear design is modeled thinly in relief and deep dark navy blue that is a specialty of Sévres ware is applied to the background. Expressing an ice pillar from mouth to the neck, it gives us the impression of the North Pole with white bears. Plant designs of art deco style are applied on the part slightly appearing at the shoulder and on the body.
