Posted By: rat Fri, Jun 20, 2014 not a plaque but an inscription in archaic style on the bottom of a bronze vessel imitating Shang/Zhou era bronzes, this one seems modern though I'm afraid. |

Posted By: rat Mon, Jun 23, 2014 you are right, the exterior sides look convincingly detailed. I'm not convinced of its authenticity from your photograph however. Some of the inscription is not hard to read but a translation is too involved a project for me at the moment, particularly in a free forum. Super may come to your rescue. The oxidation etc seems conveniently absent from the inscription, so that is helpful in sparing it from obscurity. |
