These paintings and script not only decorate the vase but also tell stories and convey meanings, rooted in Chinese culture and tradition.
A distinguishing feature of this vase is its orange glazed decorative lateral handles, each skillfully shaped into the head of a mythical creature clutching a ring in its mouth.
