Description from the seller

The body of the vessel is made of traditional mallet pattern, and the cover is engraved with phoenix and tung leaf patterns using high relief techniques. The phoenix's wings are stretched out, and the lines are delicate and smooth, implying auspiciousness and the craftsmanship is exquisite.
