• Description:
  The mouth is extravagant, the belly is inclined, and the feet are encircled. The copper gilt tire, with a diagonal grid and brocade ground in the foot, has a long life in the center. The foot and mouth are decorated with a circle of Ruyi cloud pattern. On the wall of the bowl, there is a deep green space with sloping patterns and brocade ground. The red ground is surrounded by a Ruyi pattern on each side. The characters “Wan, Sui, Chang, Chun” are carved in it, and the characters are decorated with lotus patterns. The paint color is red, the paint layer is thin, and the knife is skilled. The oblique knife shows the cloud pattern as you like. The straight knife carves the lotus, and the yin lines and images are smooth. The contrast between red and gold and the nearly black background make the whole vessel gorgeous and stable.
