The exterior is decorated with continuous ink‑painted mountain‑and‑river scene on fine white glaze. Detailed rock textures executed with varied brushwork, rolling mountains, pines and deciduous trees, thatched hut hidden among hills, winding paths extending through landscape, creating profound spatial depth.
