The porcelain body is formed from premium kaolin clay, with a dense white paste and glossy glaze. The neck is decorated with emerald green ground and reserved “ren”-shaped cloud scrolls interspersed with polychrome flower sprigs; the shoulder has a brocade-ground band with roundels of treasures and landscapes; the body is painted in vivid wucai enamels with a qilin and a suanni lion striding among blooming peonies, with detailed mane, scales and foliage. The foot is finished with lotus-petal border, matched with double-layer fabric display base. Dimension: Height 38cm × Width 17cm (14.96×6.69in).
