Description from the seller

The jar has a rounded body and a domed cover, both decorated with a rich coral-red ground.

The body is finely decorated in gold with floral designs and stylised Chinese Shou (寿) characters, representing longevity. The gilt decoration features elaborate flowers, scrolling foliage and longevity symbols, creating a richly ornamented and auspicious design.
