Artist: Ancient Chinese Craftsmen
Year:403BC-221BC
This is a type of drinking vessel that was first utilized in the middle of the Spring and Autumn Period and was widely used during the Warring States Period. The site is located in the Shangdang area of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, where the states of Zhao and Han once held power. Burials after the Warring States period are usually considered to belong to the state of Han.
I find the patterns on this ancient Chinese drinking vessel incredibly charming, which brings me a lot of inspiration and creativity for my art project.

Can’t believe they could make it at that time!
Yes, I was really amazed when I first saw it.
Is it heavy?
The exquisite craftsmanship of this ancient Bronze He wine vessel is absolutely breathtaking. The intricate gold inlay against the dark bronze creates a stunning contrast that speaks volumes of the artistry and precision from over two millennia ago. This piece is not only a testament to the rich cultural heritage of ancient China but also an inspiring muse for any creative endeavour. Truly remarkable! I love Chinese cultural relics!
Exquisite wine glass!
