Purple sandalwood mandarin ducks playing in the water
Gilded jewelry box

A gold-painted jewelry box depicting mandarin ducks playing in water.
Made from old purple sandalwood using mortise and tenon joints, it has a hard and delicate texture. The Song brocade lining features swaying reeds, elegant lotus blossoms, and mandarin ducks frolicking in the water—a scene of warmth and beauty.
I envy not the immortals, but only the mandarin ducks; I only wish to grow old with you, to be with you for the rest of my life.
