Glaze nesting sculpture is a traditional handicraft that is relatively minority in
China. Compared with porcelain painting and porcelain sculpture and coloring,glaze nesting sculpture is more three-dimensional and has a more three dimensional sense of space, but it is more difficult to make because the glaze vase is made of glaze vases of three colors set together and carved together. By accident, all three layers of nesting material were discarded.

The body of the vase is engraved with a giant dragon, which is lifelike, as if it
is overlooking all living beings on the earth among the clouds in the sky.Viewed from the side of the vase, because the nesting sculpture is more three dimensional, it gives the viewer the feeling that the dragon is about to leave the vase and fly into the real world.
