A five-lobed goblet raised on a foot from which a slender stem rises, supporting the cup above. Finely decorated in underglaze cobalt blue, the upper section is divided into five panels, each painted on the exterior with a mountainous river landscape, rendered with subtle variations in each section. The stem is decorated with stylised scroll motifs and features a fine raised relief band at the centre, while the foot is painted with stylised pointed leaf motifs. The interior is decorated at the centre with a lingzhi sprig, while the rim is encircled by a hatched band.

The unusual goblet form was most likely inspired by Western drinking vessels, such as European wine glasses or kandeel cups. Adapted by Chinese porcelain makers, it reflects the cultural exchange between East and West that characterised the export porcelain trade, combining a European-derived shape with refined Chinese craftsmanship and decoration.

杯呈五瓣花口，下承細長高足及外撇圈足。外壁分為五組開光，每組均以青花繪山水圖，峰巒、江水、亭舍及林木各具細微變化。高足飾變形卷草紋，中部凸起一道弦紋, 足端環繪尖葉紋。杯心繪折枝靈芝，口沿內側環飾斜線紋帶。

此種少見的高足杯造型可能受到西方飲酒器的啟發，如歐洲玻璃酒杯或「kandeel」甜酒杯。中國瓷匠將其重新演繹，以歐洲器形結合中國傳統青花紋飾與製瓷工藝，反映外銷瓷貿易背景下東西方器物文化的交流與融合。
