The shape of the vase mouth, belly, and foot imitates a trefoiled flower. The vase lip is slightly skewed, and the vase neck is long and followed by slip shoulder and round belly. The foot-ring is also slightly skewed. The neck and shoulder is decorated with a mahogany tree that has five peaches. Next to it is a shrub of lingzhi. The vase body is coated with a brown glaze and full of decorative branches painted in gold. Among the branches are decorative quatrefoiled flowers. The vase lip and the foot-ring are coated with a gold-lacquer glaze. The inner-wall of the vase is coated with a light blue-green glaze. At the bottom of the vase, an inscription "Made in Qing Qianlong" in shuen-shu (seal character) is engraved under the glaze.
