Description:
|
In the Warring States period, decorations on bronze vessels began to reflect lifestyles of contemporary aristocracy. Three principal registers of decorations were (in the order from top to bottom) palatial feast scenes, hunting scenes with chariot, and mulberry picking scenes. In between them are two rows of geometric patterning and one row of bird and beast motif.
