  The shape is the same as before. The white glaze inside the utensil has no grain, and the enamel on the outer wall is painted with various colors of magnolias, crabapples, peonies, etc. The blank space between magnolias and peonies is decorated with ink poem lines “The shadow turns round and round, the moonlight smells like fine wind”, and the poem lines are painted with “beautiful”, “Jincheng”, and “Xuying”. The body is thin and transparent, and the white glaze is delicate. In the blue background, the book “made in Yongzheng’s year” is in four characters and two lines in imitation Song script, with thick and thin double boxes. Magnolia, crabapple and peony are all auspicious flowers, implying “wealth of the Jade Hall”. Tea cups can also be called tea bowls.
