The square bottle with gold double-ear movable ring is decorated with a crook pattern on the edge of the mouth, and the neck is carved with a looped edge, and the two sides are inlaid with animal face patterns on the movable ring. The four sides of the bottle body are carved with ring and rope frames, and the whole body is carved with gold patterns. The bottle body is clearly divided into three parts: the bottle neck, the bottle belly, and the bottle foot. The bottle body is carved with inlaid patterns on all sides, and the neck is inlaid with two patterns of ganoderma lucidum and orchid. The bottle foot is inlaid with lotus patterns for a week, the front of the bottle belly is inlaid with green bamboo, the back is inlaid with peach branches, and the two sides are inlaid with chrysanthemum, dragonfly, orchid and bird patterns. In the bottle, the jasper pine tree is the main scenery, and the honey cane flowers hang among the trees. The trees are lined with jasmine leaves, rose with hibiscus petals and white magnolia
The lake turquoise pattern embedded in the bottle scene and the carved gold bottle reflect each other, which is magnificent. The craftsman used evergreen pine, magnolia in early spring and rose in summer to match the carved golden square vase with flower patterns, which means “peace all the year round”, and can be regarded as the best work of the imperial bonsai in the reign of Qianlong.
