This large round box is made for holding the imperial jade belt. The pattern on the cover is magnificent, while the decorative form with landscape as the theme and dragon pattern as the edge decoration is rare in the palace works. The craftsman used the technique of rendering in the gold painting, combined with the chapped points of the ink paint, to make the pattern clear and three-dimensional, showing the charm of traditional Chinese painting, and unique in the gold painting.
