Very Large 16th/17th Century Archaic Style  Bronze Hu
A very large bronze (copper tin alloy) vase cast in Han dynasty Hu form with Taotie mask handles and late Shang / early Zhou Dynasty style Taotie decoration. A 1973 British Museum letter (enlargement 12) suggests an 18th/19th Century dating but we believe that this item was made a little earlier, in the late Ming dynasty, during the 16th/17th Century. Condition - there are old repairs and losses, particularly to the base (please view enlargements). 49.5cm (19.5 inches)high; weight 8.9kg (19.6lb).

16/17世纪作高古风青铜大壶
一件仿汉代风格的青铜(铜锡合金)大壶,铺首耳衔环,壶身有商晚期/周早期风格的饕餮纹饰。一封写于1973年来自大英博物馆的信件中,认为此件大壶为18/19世纪,但是我们认为此件应稍早些,可能为16/17世纪明晚期。
品相:有几处老修和缺失,特别是底部(见图)。高49.5厘米,重8.9公斤。
