Title
Bronze
ding
vessel
(detail)
Description
This
is
a
standard
example
of the
most
popular
and
enduring
bronze
vessel
shapes
.
It
is
an
excellent
example
of
mould
casting
.
Normally
, the
design
on the
lid
of an
ancient
bronze
vessel
matches
that on the
body
of a
vessel
. Here, the
decoration
on the
lid
does
not
repeat
that of the
body
;
nor
does
the
lid
fit
securely
on the
vessel
. These
two
discrepancies
indicate
that this
lid
does
not
belong
to this
specific
vessel
.
Bronze
lids
with
similar
three
projecting
prongs
have been
found
in
tombs
in
Sandong
and
Henan
Provinces
; the
vessels
they
belong
to are
considered
to
date
from the
Eastern
Zhou
period
(722-256
BC)
. The
surface
decoration
of
interlaced
designs
both
the
body
and the
lid
are
typical
for this
period
.
