The plain version of this artifact counts towards the following three achievements:

The Three Brew Fathers
Collector: Empty Kegs of Brewfather Xin Wo Yin - restoring five of these
Collector: Empty Kegs of Brewfather Xin Wo Yin - after earning the achievement above, you move on to restoring TWENTY of these (the joy!)

Occasionally while working towards finishing the common Pandaren artifacts, you actually end up completing a 'Pristine' version of the artifact instead. Hand in the subsequent quest at the Seat of Knowledge in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms (there is nothing else that needs to be done) and you'll receive one Pandaren Pottery Shard and 3x Restored Artifact (which is an archaeological currency for MoP).

The location 'The Seat of Knowledge' for all hand-ins to Lorewalker Cho is above the Mogu'shan Palace in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms and can only be accessed with flying.

The following is a list of all possible 'Pristine' Pandaren artifacts:

Apothecary Tins can instead become Pristine Apothecary Tins which gives you Pristine Apothecary Tins
Carved Bronze Mirror can instead become Pristine Carved Bronze Mirror which gives you Pristine Carved Bronze Mirror
Empty Keg can instead become Pristine Empty Keg which gives you Pristine Empty Keg
Pandaren Game Board can instead become Pristine Game Board which gives you Pristine Game Board
Gold-Inlaid Figurine can instead become Pristine Gold-Inlaid Figurine which gives you Pristine Gold-Inlaid Figurine
Pandaren Tea Set can instead become Pristine Pandaren Tea Set which gives you Pristine Pandaren Tea Set
Pearl of Yu'lon can instead become Pristine Pearl of Yu'lon which gives you Pristine Pearl of Yu'lon
Standard of Niuzao can instead become Pristine Standard of Niuzao which gives you Pristine Standard of Niuzao
Twin Stein Set can instead become Pristine Twin Stein Set which gives you Pristine Twin Stein Set
Walking Cane can instead become Pristine Walking Cane which gives you Pristine Walking Cane
