Bronze dun: Ancient aristocrats' "luxury goods" for serving meals

Since ancient times, Chinese bronze art has stood on all Chinese artworks, and at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the People's Dynasty, an ancient bronze ware could be exchanged for dozens or even hundreds of official kiln ware of the third Qing dynasty. Although the historical and academic value of bronze is much higher than that of calligraphy, painting and porcelain, the market value of bronze and its share are still far behind that of calligraphy, painting and porcelain, which have entered the era of 100 million yuan.
On March 2014, 3, after many communication and agreements, Wentian returned to China. The reappearance of the Heavenly Gang will not only drive the bronze market, but may make the entire ancient market recover. Moreover, Chinese bronzes are not only numerous, but also rich in shape and variety. Each vessel shape presents a different style in each era, and the same type of vessel in the same period is also colorful, and the bronzes in different regions are also different, which can be called a hundred flowers, so that the bronzes have a high ornamental value.

The bottom of the bronze can be heated. Unlike many other bronze utensils, the lid of the bronze dun can be placed securely on the desk to hold food, just like a bowl. Moreover, Dun, generally used in conjunction with the ding of meat, was produced in the middle of Spring and Autumn, prevailed in the late Spring and Autumn to the late Warring States period, and gradually disappeared after the Qin Dynasty. Because ancient people sat on the ground and put the dun on the table during the banquet, the dunduo had enough and developed from the combination of the shape of the ding and the guan. As far as the overall development and changes of cooking utensils are concerned, the utensils that match the meat food in Dingzhong are Gui in the Western Zhou, Dun in Spring and Autumn, and boxes after the Warring States. "Rites and Famous Places" contains: "There are two duns of the Yu clan. "It shows that it has evolved from a storage vessel to a ceremonial vessel very early.
