Copper Plated Enamel Fushou Couplet Clock, Guangzhou, Qing Qianlong, height 112 cm, width 41 cm, thickness 33 cm
On the bottom of the clock is a music box. The front of the ground floor is a landscape, with one person holding a calligraphy couplet in the middle. There is a circle of treasure donors around it. In addition, the landscape is also decorated with auspicious scenery, such as bats fluttering on ganoderma lucidum, deer, and immortal apes holding peaches. Couplets are arranged on both sides of the landscape, and they are written on rotatable triangular copper pillars. Each side of the pillars rotates, changing different content. On the pillar are two couplets, “Auspicious scenery with an image and a boundless rhyme”, “Good scenery in the resort, and many festivities in spring and Taiwan”, and a painting couplet with one person kneeling and holding the pagoda with both hands. The oval two-storey front scenery box is a city landscape oil painting with active characters in it. The remaining surfaces are surrounded by water methods. Pave the water method on the second floor platform, and erect a flat gourd bottle in the middle. A clock is embedded in the lower abdomen of the bottle, there are stone flowers on the epigastrium, and a large bunch of flowers are inserted in the bottle
After the bottom of the bell is strung and started, the music rises. The couplet holder displays the four characters “Fu Shou Qi Tian” on the couplet. Inside the entrance and exit of the treasure donation team around it, the bats on the ganoderma lucidum flutter their wings, and the couplet changes. In front of the second floor set, the characters walk, with the water rotating like a waterfall on the side, and the water rotating like waves on the platform. After the string relaxes, the music stops and the activity stops performing.
