Food serving vessel (Yu)
The Food serving vessel (Yu) is a bronze object with a dark green patina. The vessel has a rounded body with a wide mouth and a short neck. The body is adorned with intricate carvings. A wide, flat band encircles the vessel, featuring a geometric pattern. The lid is domed with a small cylindrical handle on top and a carved geometric pattern that mirrors that on the body.

The background is a gradient of dark gray to light gray, with a shadow cast by the vessel to the right.
