fantastic creatures from China
this tremendous beast, I met in Glasgow, Burrell Collection:
Dear ashako explained:
«Judging by the cover on the back, a vessel (for that is not quite correct to call the wine - In the process of cooking is more beer:)). Almost all of the various forms of vessels intended for different stages of preparation "vinopiva, its storage and use. This little fantasy animal with hooves a la sobachkokorovka - probably, for human consumption.:) Looks like the Han time. Preservation very much good. »
This miracle is now living in Milan, Poldi Pezzoli Museum:
Again I will refer to ashako: this vessel, probably Ming (Ming Dynasty, 1368-1644). Completed it is rare for a Chinese technique of cloisonne enamel.
