Fake or fantasy piece with a false patina. There have been vaguely similar bull or ox-form ritual bronzes unearthed in China, one being the famous bronze table supported by an ox protecting a calf and being attacked by a tiger.

This is a recently made Chinese bronze? in the form of a Shang-era "zun" wine vessel. Compare the similar example in the Hunan Provincial Museum:
