| A rare bronze figure of a bear was in a cute squatting position. By unique image, the bronze figure was probably served as one of the legs of an archaic bronze vessel when hollowed bolt was found on the reversed side. Spread all over the surface with charming verdigris and the darken red patina which was caused by long time of oxidization, the figurine was authenticated as an archaic piece from ancient time for sure. In an intriguing form and strong nomadic mood, it was engraved in a subject which was most popular in Han period. Even though it was an accessory, it was really unusual for an item rarely found in the archaic period and with such joyful look. Date: Han Dynasty(206B.C.~A.D.220), Height: 2 5/8in. | ||
