Description

The shape of the vessel is modeled after a bronze round Gui, with a simple and stable design. The belly is symmetrically decorated with arches and ears, symbolizing peace and tranquility. The mouth is tied around the neck, the legs are slightly curled, the belly is bulging, and the two sides are decorated with sculpted double elephant nose ears, with a quaint and unique shape. The bottom of the tire is exposed, and the tire is solid and heavy, with a slight hint of fiery stone red. The outer wall is adorned with blue and white decorations, featuring two dragons playing with pearls. The dragon's body is agile, powerful, and full of vitality, exuding a royal demeanor. Two long dragons are chasing the Flame Pearl between the auspicious clouds, with strong and powerful claws, wide open dragon beaks, and graceful dragon whiskers. The overall picture is highly dynamic. The blue and white hair color is pure, bright and beautiful, with a full and intricate pattern composition, clear layers, exquisite painting, and pleasing to the eye. The regular script version of the "Ming Dynasty Wanli Year System" is included in the bottom book. The brushwork is powerful and the ups and downs are evident, making it a beautiful masterpiece of Wanli.
