Subject:Shang Bronze Owl Vessel
Posted By: Steven Tue, Nov 03, 2015 IP: 98.245.139.158

Hello Forum, I have a wine vessel that has 2 bands of animal figures around the waist (approx. 19) I understand the patina is heavy but can I get some opinions on the potential significance of this design as I have not seen anything online that explains the use of animals on a vessel. Thank you in advance.

Hi Steven, it is not a Shang but from Eastern Zhou/Warring States period. Congrats!
