The clean and warm green white jade is carved into a bowl with poppies in full bloom. Cut the bottom with another piece of jade and paste it. The bottom is also carved into a flat poppy flower, overlapping four petals, and the flower core is finely carved. A circle of acanthus leaves is wound around the lower edge of the abdominal wall, and three acanthus leaves are extended from the lower part of both sides along the abdominal wall upward. The longest branch extends to the mouth edge and folds, hanging a bud and touching the second leaf tip. Quality, art and workmanship. This jade bowl was sent to the Qing Palace in 1770. Emperor Qianlong wrote poems for it and engraved them on the outer wall. In the postscript of the poem, it is emphasized that it is made of water, as thin as paper, which cannot be done by Chinese jade workers.
