The shoulders has a three-character inscription in iron-red “dayazhai” (da ya zhai,  大雅齋) followed by an oval seal with the six-character mark “tian di yi jia chun” that may be translated as "Spring throughout heaven and earth". The belows inscribed in iron red with the mark “Yongqing Changchun” (永慶長春).
