饕餮紋銅爵
Bronze jue wine vessel with taotie pattern
西周 (Western Zhou dynasty,1046 BC– 771BC
河南博物院藏(Henan Museum collection)
青銅爵作為酒器始於夏，盛於商，終於西周。此器是銅爵晚期的典型代表，寬流較短，尖尾上翹，有一對高大的傘形柱立於沿上，腹部稍鼓，圜底，下有三條三稜錐狀足。柱飾渦紋，腹鑄以雷紋為底的饕餮(滔鐵(粵)，taotie (普))紋。
The bronze jue was first used as a wine vessel in the Xia dynasty. Its popularity peaked during the Shang dynasty and declined in the Western Zhou dynasty. This is a typical model of the bronze jue in the late stage of development. It has a wide, a short spout with a pointed tail tilting upwards. On the rim edge is a pair of tall, big, umbrella-shaped columns. The belly protrudes a little. The jue has a round base with three triangular, cone-shaped legs. The columns are decorated with a vortex pattern and the belly was cast with a taotie pattern on top of a thunder pattern.
