Description.
Jade of an ochre hue, with reddish and amber flecks. Carved in the shape of a goblet, it has a circular base supported by three beast-shaped legs, which rise towards a flared foot and on which rests a tubular, U-shaped body that widens slightly towards the mouth, crowned by a concave lid. The body, flanked by a handle in the shape of an elongated mythical beast, is adorned with successive incised details of dragons and archaic animals surrounding the body. On the front face, there are two relief images of a majestic phoenix with long feathers and a curled beak, above a small dragon with four legs and a sinuous body.
