polished rosewood mandolin inlaid with a gilded dragon design
Look: The bowl of the instrument is darkly stained while the soundboard is crafted in a lighter tint. Gilded wood has been inlaid between the bridge and the sound hole depicting a reclining dragon, the creature's face spread with a drunken grin, while raising a tankard in a toast. A flowing inscription encircles the board, along with a complex knotwork pattern that meets at the gently curved neck and continues beneath the course of strings to the headstock.

There appears to be something written on it.
