Description:
From Shang to Western Zhou (16th century B.C. ~8th century B.C.), handles of ding-shaped vessels were mainly affixed to the rim and named standing ears for that reason. Beginning with Eastern Zhou, the Spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period (8th century B.C ~ 3rd century B.C), the location of the handles moved from the rim to the side of the belly, and was then called attached ears. This vessel is in that style of the attached ears, and its animal legs are derived from the late Western Zhou tradition. On the surface of the lid, aside from the central ring knob, are three plates of a tiger-patterned knob done in openwork, which became a newly invented style in the Spring and Autumn period.
