Ceremonial/ritual vessel, Qing dynasty 1644–1911, 19th century, China. Materials not specified. Height 16 cm, diameter 12.2 cm., A single metallic object lies on a smooth light-gray surface against a slightly darker gray background, shown from an end-on perspective. The object appears to be made of brass or a similar metal, displaying a golden-yellow color with iridescent patches that show subtle hints of pink and green. The visible end is circular and recessed, with a worn, uneven interior surface and areas of darker tarnish. Protruding from the central body are several short rounded projections and two curved arm-like elements that extend upward and outward, all sharing the same golden-yellow and slightly iridescent finish. The overall lighting is soft, creating gentle highlights and soft shadows on the metallic surfaces.
