- Description:
light cyan jade, partially stained brown. The horn cup has a special shape, which may be influenced by Eurasian grassland cultural vessels. The dragon head on the front is in the form of relief, with its body and tail winding downward, bypassing the sharp bottom of the horn cup and turning to the back. The dragon tail with twisted silk patterns finally extends to the right side of the front and is supported by clear dragon claws. A plane phoenix is also designed on the back. Because of the limited area, the phoenix feather crown skillfully goes up through the dragon tail and points up, turning into a common flower pattern at this time. This work is full of creativity and is really a representative work of this period
