The dark lacquer ground contrasts with shimmering gold detailing across its three oval panels and curved shaft. Measuring 48 cm in length, it exhibits smooth curves and meticulous craftsmanship, embodying the elegant aesthetic of Qing court decorative arts and the traditional Chinese wish for “everything goes as you wish.”
