The playful character of the chilong adorning this vase is accentuated by the clever use of the stone’s natural skin and inclusions, which are concentrated mainly in the creatures and around the mouth of the vessel. This treatment creates a sense of movement that complements the subject.
自明代以降，黃玉為帝王及鑑藏家推重。高濂《燕閒清賞牋》云：「玉以甘黃為上，羊脂次之。」此瓶玉質凝脂，色若蒸栗，乃稀世珍材。器身立雕三蟠螭盤踞攀附，古意盎然，渾厚精絕，彰顯「師古而不泥古」之審美理想。巧匠留褐色玉皮，亦顯惜材之敬。
