Carved from lustrous jade, its surface retains the warm translucence that only centuries can bestow, revealing both the technical mastery and spiritual devotion of its ancient maker. The vessel’s mouth, measuring 6.7 cm, opens like a crescent moon at first light. Its height of 20.5 cm rises as though lifting a fragment of primordial culture, while its maximum width of 11 cm displays the poised strength of the divine beast in full relief. Weighing 1,054.5 g, it holds within its dense body the quiet gravity of a thousand years. A mythic beast bows to bear the gong upon its back. The creature’s form is sinewy yet graceful, its incised motifs flowing with rhythmic precision. Every curve reflects the Spring and Autumn craftsman’s reverence for sacred totems—symbols uniting sovereign authority and auspicious protection. On one side, a movable ring hangs freely, an extraordinary technical marvel of the era. The ring’s ability to swing within the jade’s embrace demonstrates a level of refinement so exacting that it remains a benchmark of ancient jade-working ingenuity. The reddish-brown patina, naturally formed over centuries, flows across the pale-green stone in soft, painterly gradations. These hues appear as if brushed by time itself, leaving poetic traces of antiquity. Each vein and tint stands as nature’s own calligraphy, deepening both the aesthetic charm and historical resonance of the piece. Once used in ritual feasts among the noble elites, this jade gong now endures as a masterpiece of transmitted antiquity, linking the ceremonial grandeur of the Chun Qiu courts with the discerning connoisseurship of the modern age. To possess it is to hold the essence of three realms in one—the zenith of early jade craftsmanship, the invocation of divine blessing, and the mystery of millennial patina. Placed upon a scholar’s desk, one might almost hear the rhythm of ancient chisels or glimpse nobles raising their cups in solemn ritual. This is not merely a vessel but a tangible fragment of the Spring and Autumn civilization—a rare treasure among archaic jades, and a silent yet resounding echo of China’s eternal artistry.
