拍品描述
A GOLD-INLAID BRONZE EAR CUP, DUN, LATE SPRING AND AUTUMN PERIOD TO EARLY WESTERN HAN DYNASTYChina, circa 5th-2nd century BC. Of oval section, flanked by a pair of loop handles, the slightly waisted mouth collared by a gold-inlaid border of triangles, the body similarly decorated with gold-inlaid archaic scrollwork, above additional petal-shaped lappets, all supported on a short foot.Provenance: Swedish private collection. A private collection in northern Germany, acquired from the above in 2015 and thence by descent. Condition: Very good condition overall, with expected ancient wear, minor casting irregularities, and clear signs of burial, including encrustations. There are some losses to the inlays, a few of which may have been renewed at some point over the past two millennia. Small dents, minute nicks, light surface scratches, and a few tiny losses are present. The bronze bears a rich, naturally developed dark patina with areas of malachite and cuprite encrustation.Weight: 497 g Dimensions: Length 14.8 cmThe inlay technique, which involves setting wire and sheets of precious metals such as gold, silver, or copper into prepared channels, appeared at the end of the Spring and Autumn period and became widespread during the Warring States period.Literature comparison:Compare a closely related bronze cup, with recesses indicating it was originally inlaid, dated approx. 500-400 BC, 14.6 cm wide, in the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, object number B60B720. Compare a pair of closely related oval bowls with turquoise and gold inlays, 17 cm wide, dated 400-300 BC, illustrated by Behzad Bavarian, “Unearthing technology's influence on the ancient Chinese dynasties through metallurgical investigations”, 2005, p. 17, fig. 18. Compare a related gold inlaid bronze tripod vessel, 21.2 cm wide, in the Palace Museum, Beijing, reference number 故00077405.
