| Reverse description | Central motif depicts a finely detailed meiping-form porcelain vase with colored enamel decoration, rendered in vibrant green and white colorization to portray a bamboo spray design characteristic of classical Chinese celadon and famille-verte ceramics. The vase is set against a reticulated geometric lattice background worked in frosted relief, evoking traditional Chinese window tracery or porcelain openwork. Bamboo stalks and foliage in green color extend beyond the vase into the surrounding field, enhancing the naturalistic composition. The denomination 5元 appears to the right of the central motif, and the Chinese legend 竹报平安 (Bamboo Heralding Peace) is inscribed along the lower left field. The reverse exemplifies the series' celebration of Chinese intangible cultural heritage through the combination of colored inlay and sculpted silver relief. |
