Description

Chinese Zhou Dynasty bronze ritual vessels from the 10th century BC and 8th century BC:

Left item: A bronze liding vessel for containing food, early Eastern Zhou period, 8th century BC.

Center item: A bronze fu vessel for containing food, early Eastern Zhou period, 8th century BC. When the vessel is opened and inverted, the lid also serves as another container.

Right item: A bronze ying vessel for containing water, Western Zhou period, 10th century BC. The unusual shape and style of this bronze vessel was influenced by the ceramic tradition in ancient China, with horizontal fluting around the body as if made on a potter's wheel, as well as the shape of the legs being similar to ancient Chinese pottery models.
