  This dish has narrow mouth, shallow arc wall and short circle foot. The inside of the vessel is plain without lines, and the outer wall is painted with light green glaze. There are many impurities on the glaze surface, especially on one side of the inscription. One side of the outer wall is painted with two pink peach blossoms, low green bamboos, blue strange stones and colorful ganoderma lucidum. On the other side, there is a poem written in ink, “reflecting the water but doubting to ride the warm waves, so the green cliff is planted by relying on clouds”. Two lines are quoted from the couplet of Shen Shixing’s seven character poem “Peach Blossom” in the Ming Dynasty. There are three red ink seals in front of the poem, “Jiali”, and behind it, “Jincheng” and “Xuying”. The bottom of the utensil is provided with two lines of blue Song typeface made in Yongzheng year.
