Description

This is a very interesting item, it's hard to put it down when you start to look at it there is lots of designs on it but I don't know what they are, it's bronze lots of patina all over it and about 10" tall and about 7" wide it stand very study on these three legs and a dragon head on the handle, i got it for only two bucks because we all was thinking it was some old farming tool and we didn't know what it was so they just wanted to get rid of it I knew it looked interesting so I got it and took it home and put it in the storage shed moved it around for a couple of years until I seen the show "The Antique Road Show" and they had one on the show and it looked just like this ons.

Any information on this item will be most helpful.

 

Thanks!

Hi,

Unless you know the item's history, it's hard to tell if they are original antique Jue Vessels or modern reproductions made to look old.

Unless you know the item's history, only an expert will be able to tell.  You should contact Christie's for an opinion.

But if you really want to sell now, I'll offer you $100 for this and $75 for the other post.

Best of luck.

Thanks Rilki for the offer but I would like to check with Christie's for their opinion before I sell, I will keep you in mind if I choose to sell early.

Thanks again!
