The upper part of the heart turning bottle is the mouth and neck, with a pursed mouth, a tied neck, and a lower outer pursed mouth. The mouth edge is painted with gold, depicting a circle of auspicious clouds. The neck is decorated with folded branches and precious phase flowers, with elephant heads pasted on both sides. The elephant heads are finely carved and vivid, painted with purple gold glaze and outlined with gold on top. The central part of the heart-shaped vase is spherical, decorated with tangled lotus flowers throughout the body, and decorated with four circular and colorful carvings of four seasonal flowers, namely pomegranate cave stones, peonies and magnolias, cold plums and proud bones, and graceful hibiscus, symbolizing wealth and prosperity in the four seasons, having many children and blessings. The carvings are exquisite and vivid, and the colors of the Western colors are beautiful and beautiful. Leaning the feet outward, the banana leaf pattern is painted on the ground with powder glaze, while the green glaze pattern wraps around the branches and curls around the grass near the bottom. The bottom of the vessel is covered with turquoise green glaze, and the center is inscribed with blue and white seal script "Made by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty". This product combines various techniques such as watercolor, gold painting, hollowing out, heart turning, and relief. The visuals are complex yet not chaotic, filled with the fragrance of flowers and revealing the dignity of the royal family. It is simply exquisite and beautiful. This bottle was made during the most prosperous period of the Qing Dynasty, the Qianlong period, and was extremely luxurious and breathtaking, fully reflecting the highest achievement in the production technology of official kiln foreign colored porcelain during the Qianlong period. The Heart Turning Bottle was a product of the extremely luxurious and luxurious court life during the Qianlong period. It belongs to a bottle style created in the Qing Dynasty. Set a rotatable inner bottle inside a perforated bottle and paint various patterns on it. The upper part of the inner bottle has an exposed mouth, and the bottle body is hidden inside the outer bottle. There are decorative paintings on it, including seasonal scenery, landscape figures, flowers, birds, insects, and fish. When moving the inner bottle, different images can be seen through the perforations on the outer bottle, like a horse lantern. The difficulty of making a rotating bottle is very high. The bottom of the outer bottle needs to be made into a heart-shaped button, while the bottom of the inner bottle needs to be made into a heart-shaped groove. The button and groove must absolutely match. Especially, the drying rate of the outer and inner bottles should be considered, as well as the shrinkage rate after firing. If you don't pay any attention and cause the buttons and slots to not match, even the previous hard work will be in vain. So, the cost of making rotary bottles is very high, often one in a hundred. However, "what is good at the top, what is good at the bottom" are all things provided to the court to please the emperor. No wonder Xu Zhiheng recorded in his famous work "Yin Liu Zhai Shuo Ci" that "the belly of the bottle is exquisite and transparent, and there is also a bottle inside that can rotate simultaneously. If there is one, it is called 'Zhuan Xin', which is a precious garment of the inner palace.".
