The four sides of the vessel are primarily decorated with embossed taotie designs (animal mask designs) against a background of carved huiwen (key fret patterns). The upper part of each side is adorned with a band of stylized dragon designs in relief against a background of incised key fret patterns as well. Eight evenly spaced heavy and notched flanges are attached to all the sides. This vessel has a special designed redwood lid with a carved serpentine knob (now missing). Originally this bronze fang ding was regarded as a vessel dated to the early Han dynasty (206 BC-220 AD) by the donor Mr. John H. Hampshire. However, when taking a close view of the outward-turning mouthrim and the bottom of each leg, the original brass material used to produce this vessel can be clearly seen. Such a fact demonstrates this piece is a recent product made no earlier than the Qing dynasty (1644-1911). This is because bronze vessels dated to the Song dynasty (960-1279) or earlier are exclusively made of red copper; those brass 'antique' vessels are undoubtedly recent copies according to a book titled gu wan zhi nan (Guide of Chinese Antiques) written by Zhao Ruzhen, a prestigious modern connoisseur in 1942."},{"label":"Title","value":"Ritual food vessel fang ding"},{"label":"Rights","value":"Materials available through GettDigital encompass a wide range of works, many of which are in the public domain.
