The characters "Shou" and Qi Zao, the imperial master of the third generation, excerpted authentic articles written by seventeen ancient scholars to enlighten and warn future generations. The Chinese characters "100 years old" and articles were engraved on it using intaglio techniques and painted with gold powder. There is a "mother-of-pearl inlaid shell mirror", which uses natural shells to carve folk auspicious patterns and the three stars of "Fu Lu Shou".
