Ting Cauldron with Coiled Snake Pattern
These three cauldrons have deep bellies, round bottoms, vertical handles and hoof-shaped feet. Coiled snake patterns decorate the upper body and handles while triangle patterns decorate the lower body. Although the cauldrons vary in size, they are all bigger than the other sets of graded ting cauldrons and therefore are the so-called huo-ting cauldrons.
