西周中晚期 青銅豆See a similar example illustrated by Jessica Rawson, Chinese Bronzes, Art and Ritual, British Museum, London, 1987, pp. 34-35, fig. 12d, in a line drawing depicting twenty-one vessels from a hoard of one-hundred and three bronzes buried at Zhuangbai, a village in Fufeng Xian at the heart of the Zhouyuan area. Also compare with a dou from Hubei province with a reticulated stem illustrated by Jenny So, Eastern Zhou Ritual Bronzes from the Arthur M. Sackler Collections, New York, 1995, p.181. The author notes that this type of dou with shallow, straight vertical-sided bowl and broad openwork stem may have developed alongside wood-core lacquer dou, around the 10th or 9th century BC. Another late Western Zhou example in Qishan County Museum is illustrated in Zhongguo meishu quanji (Collected Works of the Fine Arts of China), Beijing, 1985, vol. 4, pp. 79 and 211. See also another dou in the Hubei Museum collection illustrated in Zhongguo wenwu jinghua daquan, qingtong juan, Hong Kong, 1994, p.186, no.661.For a similar dou, see Christie's, London, 'Status and Ritual: Archaic Chinese Bronzes from an Important Private European Collection', 9 November 2015, lot 17
