Description

This celestial sphere bottle has a huge shape, with a straight neck, round belly, thick and powerful, and a white glaze as the base, pure and pure white, with a strong sense of jade. Using cobalt blue and copper red as the ink, the composition is complex and the structure is strict. The neck and abdomen are covered in the Nine Dragons Ruyi cloud pattern. The dragon's mouth and teeth are angry, its beard and hair are scattered, and its momentum is brick like. The cloud is rolling and surging, fully embodying the agility of the flying dragon in the sky, which is extremely artistic expression. The art style is characterized by strong brushstrokes, light brushstrokes, and effective and elastic brushstrokes. The bottle has nine dragons with different postures, with the main dragon in the center, the front paw in a circular shape, and the back paw stirring the seawater. The dragon's body curves in a loop, staring at it with awe inspiring aura. There are two dragons on each side, ascending and descending dragons. The two dragon heads on the left face each other, and the two dragons on the right leap with their backs. The four dragons each follow the flame like cloud patterns, moving their spirit and form, as if they want to leap out of the sea. Double dragons on the outer side, with the left dragon raising its chest and necking, the lower limbs protruding forward and backward, and the dragon tail swinging forward. The two dragons are full of vitality, and the competition is vivid. The upper part of the dragon bow is arched with a crossbow back, stretching and bouncing with a lively and vigorous posture. The image of the Nine Dragons is vivid and majestic, reflecting the majesty of the supreme imperial power of the Ninth Five, giving people a sense of reverence for the divine. The technique of red firing in blue and white glaze is not easy, and as a precious display tool for emperors, it is inscribed with the inscription "Made in the year of Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty". It embodies the sacred meaning of the country and the country for thousands of years, the hope for children to become dragons, good weather, and peace and prosperity!
