Subject:Old pair of bronze bowls with rice planting/tending/harvest scenes
Posted By: Nev Fri, Jul 31, 2015 IP: 184.151.231.184
This is an old pair of bronze bowls assumed to be Chinese by the base marks. Each has incised design of three carton chest illustrating the rice seasons. These show considerable wear on the incised edges. Someone suggested they were singing bowls designed to he filled with water 5eied this. Each makes a lovely but different sounds they are finely finished. Top edges perfectly flat etc. Can anyone shed and light as to age and purpose? If the designs on the bottom are genuine (is anything Chinese?) they would be at least 2-300 years old. The wear would be conclusive with this.
