Jue is a vessel used in ancient China to serve warm wine in ancestor worship rituals. It is ovoid and supported by three spreading triangular legs, with a long curved beak on one side and a balanced handle on the other. Many examples have one or two ring handles on the sides and two column protrusions on the top, which may be used to enable people to lift the vessel with a belt. They are usually gorgeously decorated and have gluttonous decorations.
