The central form is a large bamboo shoot, intricately detailed with layered, textured sheathing, representing the idiom "节节高升" (rising step by step). The base is heavily adorned with multiple gold-gilt ingots (yuanbao), ancient Chinese coins, and small golden spheres, conveying the theme of "招财进宝" (attracting wealth and treasure). The piece features a rich, dark bronze patina with bright gold gilding highlighting the auspicious symbols. A seal mark is visible on the base.
