Covered bowl

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a white jade covered bowl by Chinese artist. The bowl has a wide, shallow body with a flat base and a rounded lip, and a smaller, domed lid with a small knob on top. The bowl features two handles on either side, each consisting of a curved piece of jade with a circular design. The lid has a carved design around its middle section. The bowl and lid are made of white jade and have a smooth, glossy finish. The background of the image is a plain gray surface, with a small white label at the bottom. The label reads "THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART" in black text. A ruler or measuring scale is placed in front.
