  The disc is oval and supports four feet. The walls of the inner and outer panels are painted with lotus patterns on twigs for a week. On the one side of the panel, the white ground is painted with alum and ink, and the imperial poem of the Emperor Jiaqing of the Qing Dynasty is written: “It is a good tribute to the head of the Ming Dynasty, and it is necessary to pour poetry on the moon. The bamboo lozenges add fire, and Shi Yao boils. The eyes of fish and crabs are slowly raised, and the shadow of the flag gun is fine. One Ou is fresh and happy, and the spring is warm and cold.” On the red ground at the outer bottom, a circle of flowers is painted in gold. On the bottom, there are three lines of six character seal characters in the gold color book “Made in Jiaqing of the Qing Dynasty”, surrounded by four flowers. The side lines of the four feet and the rim are all painted with gold.
