Brush holder with scholars in a garden
Red cylindrical brush holder with a wide mouth and a flat base. The exterior surface features intricate carvings depicting scholars in a garden scene. The scholars are dressed in traditional robes and are engaged in various activities, such as playing a game or reading. The garden scene includes trees, rocks, and foliage. The top and bottom edges have decorative borders featuring geometric patterns. The background of the image is a gradient transitioning from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. The brush holder casts a shadow on the surface below it.
