On the exterior of the bowl, there is a quote from Mao's poem written in 1959, "qi lv, dao Shaoshan," which roughly means Seven Rhymes, Arrival in Shaoshan. The poem was written after Mao returned to his hometown Shaoshan in 1959 and praised the bravery of revolutionaries who "dare to make the sun and the moon shine in new skies."
