A jade tripod vessel is carved from translucent stone mottled with seafoam and emerald green. It consists of a rounded body and lid supported by three animal-head legs. On the left and right sides, animal-head handles hold dangling rings. A cluster of mythical creatures with rounded limbs is carved atop the lid. The polished jade surface is smooth across the bulbous body and intricately detailed within the three-dimensional carvings.
