The front of the copper tire is a large mouth, long neck, round belly, and high foot bottle. It is connected to the relief flower Ruyi cloud foot seat. It is flat against the wall. There is a hole below the neck that can be directly hung on the nail on the wall, so it is called the wall bottle and the 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 whole body and the mouth edge are on a light blue ground. The silk cutting technique is used to decorate the mouth edge and abdomen with lotus patterns, the neck and foot with a circle of banana leaf patterns, and the sole of the foot with a circle of flower patterns. The belly is open to the golden ground, and the inscriptions are filled with ink clerical verses, “Who is the guest and host of Wu flowers and Shu grass? There are many similarities and differences between old songs and new songs. But Qiong Hua did not intend to start a dance with a cool breeze. The imperial title of the beautiful lady Yu’s son and minister is Yongxuan’s letter of respect”. Yongxuan (1711-1799), the eighth son of Emperor Qianlong, wrote Zhao Mengfu.
