In the front is a double bat ear bottle with a long neck and a sloping shoulder and a round foot, which is connected to the Ruyi cloud foot seat. It is flat against the wall. There are four round holes and a trapezoidal recess in the back, which can be directly hung on the nails on the wall. Therefore, it is called a wall bottle and a car bottle in the Qing Dynasty. This type of utensil was first seen in the Wanli Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty and prevailed in the Qianlong Period of the Qing Dynasty. The red ground of the bottle is painted in five colors, with Ruyi cloud patterns at the mouth edge, bats, flowers and longevity characters at the neck, a lotus pattern hanging from the center of the bottle, a circle of lotus petal patterns hanging from the lower part of the bottle, and a twig lotus pattern on the gap. The seat is painted with gold scroll patterns, dot patterns, flower patterns and Ruyi cloud patterns on the alum red ground, and the bottom is the single line horizontal seal characters of the “Jiaqing Year of Qing Dynasty” gold script on the alum red ground.
