The desk's hexagonal top consists of a red vein stone inlay inside a frame, and its Bingpan-style edges have precious pearl patterns running along them. Underneath the desk top, the waistband and swollen aprons are adorned with engraved gourd and plum-blossom patterns. The S-curved legs are carved in the bamboo-node style, and feature high-relief gourd carvings. The legs are joined at the lower end by intersecting straight braces, mortised with a circular disk in the center that features bamboo-leaf carvings. The feet are stylized as animal paws.
