Description:
|
The hen half kneels. Below its beak it has long moustache hair. The long head feather is blown back and the eyes imitate the phoenix's eyes. The body is carved with feather-like pattern, but the two wings are embossed with feathers and large enough to cover most of the body. The tails imitates flowing girdles. The back of the hen bears an empty bottle. The stand is made of red sandalwood and chased with drifting cloud pattern.
