Low relief bridle on face and well defined eyes. Raised mane down back of the neck A fantastic example of the Wei dynasty horses.

It would be the horse that would carry the deceased to the next life and it would be the amount of horses that an individual owned that would guarantee his ongoing status in the hereafter.

A Rare Yue Celadon Cong-Shaped Vase, Western Jin Dynasty(3-5th C)
Located in seoul, KR
This vase is an exceptionally rare piece and likely the only known example of a Cong-shaped vase from the Jin Dynasty. While some experts may attribute this work to the Song Dynasty or later periods based on its form, it is, in fact, a much earlier creation from the 3rd to 4th century CE during the Jin Dynasty. It was imported from Hong Kong in the late 1990s and was acquired by our gallery as part of a collection that included other Jin Dynasty Yue celadon pieces. The vase features a cylindrical form with a square (方形) design and geometric incised patterns. While these design elements became more refined and sophisticated during the Song Dynasty (960~1279), their origins trace back much earlier, as evidenced by Cong-shaped jade artifacts dating as far back as 2,500 B.C.E. Examples of these ancient jade Congs...
