The screen and the mirror table are made of yellow pear wood. Above the pedestal is a five-screen type, with the screen foot directly inserted through the seat surface. The middle fan is the highest, decreasing from left to right, and turning forward in turn. Pick it out with your head in the shape of a dragon head or a phoenix head. The pedestal is cabinet type with two doors and three drawers. There is a tooth plate under the cross section, and the four legs are provided with double rush lines and protrude from the seat surface, which are connected with the observation column on the seat surface to form a baffle plate. A lion is carved at the top of the column head and leg, and the column and leg are made of wood
The patterns carved on the mirror platform are mainly dragon, phoenix, lotus and lion patterns. The four sides of the screen are all carved with dragon patterns, tangled lotus patterns, etc., but the central one is composed of a circular pattern with dragon and phoenix patterns, leaving a wide board edge outside, without carving, and then hollowed out at the four corners, using the method of virtual and real contrast to make the carved part prominent. When in use, there is a wooden frame on the pedestal to receive the round mirror, and the mirror surface leans on the screen to make the objects more harmonious
