Ancient bronze vessel with intricate patterns, green patina, and a handle on top, set against a dark background.


2023年30.24萬美元成交,約合220萬元人民幣。傳承顯赫,帶蓋、有銘文加分。


此件青銅觶連蓋為西周早期作品,形制精雅,附帶環形提梁,器身與蓋皆作橢圓長方形斷面,比例勻稱,整體構造極具儀式用途之莊重氣息。本器不僅來源顯赫,為清末著名金石學家羅振玉舊藏,亦在器形、紋飾與工藝上展現出西周初年青銅禮器過渡時期的典型風格。


其與以下三例的比對,有助於厘清西周早期觶器的形制演變與區域風格差異。特別是本器與長安、隨州出土例的對讀,更可視為西周禮器制度初步統一下,各地作坊對典型器式的個別詮釋。


Ancient bronze vessel with ornate patterns, green patina, and a lid, set against a dark background. Timeless and elegant.

其裝飾風格可與多件出土器進行比對:


陝西長安出土,現藏陝西歷史博物館者

刊載於《中國青銅器全集》第五卷《西周(上)》,北京,1996年,頁118與38,編號123。

此例同樣為環形提梁,尺寸比例相近,惟紋飾為對稱鳥紋的細帶裝飾,較本器為繁密而具動感。


2011年湖北隨州市出土,現藏湖北省文物考古研究所者

參見吳鎮鋒編《商周青銅器銘文暨圖像集成》第十九冊,上海,2012年,頁401,編號10574。

此例亦具提梁,惟器形稍大,斷面為橢圓形,與本器之圓角長方形略異;紋飾僅飾纖細弦紋,裝飾簡約。該器與勺同出,顯具祭祀用途。


另見同書頁413,編號10589

一件帶蓋觶,斷面與本器相同為圓角長方形,裝飾為細帶化龍紋,亦與本器形成風格對照。
