The jade wall is dark blue, with yellow spots and round shape. One side is decorated with grain patterns, and the other side is embossed with 9 dragon patterns. A dragon pattern in the hole in the middle of the wall is the head of the dragon and the body of the beast, and one front claw holds the fire bead. The front of the wall is embossed with five dragon patterns, all with small heads and single horns, which surround the dragon in the middle hole. There are three chi on the edge of the wall, and the hind legs and tail are on the back of the wall
The ancients believed that the dragon was a kind of dragon. After the Song and Yuan Dynasties, jade walls were mostly decorated with dragon motifs. This work represents the vastness of the sky with jade jade, and the prosperity of the royal family with nine chi, which should be the palace articles of the Ming Dynasty.
