My system is not decent

Overall, the design of this copper bull lamp is very delicate, even very scientific.

For example, a cow has a hollow belly and a round lamp panel on its back. A flat handle is set on one side of the lamp panel to facilitate turning the lamp panel.

The plate is decorated with two lampshades that can be rotated flexibly, one of which is hollowed out with diamond-shaped oblique grid pattern, which plays the role of heat dissipation, wind protection and dimming.

The dome-shaped cover is tightly fastened on the lampshade, and the evenly curved smoke pipe on the top of the cover is tightly socketed with the short pipe protruding from the top of the bull's head.

When the lamp is ignited, the smoke produced is dissolved in the water introduced into the abdominal cavity of the lamp holder through the smoke pipe, thus ensuring the freshness of the indoor air.

These kinds of designs can be described as ingenious, coupled with the ultimate craftsmanship, this copper bull lamp is even more extraordinary.

This Eastern Han miscellaneous gold and silver copper bull lamp mainly adopts the miscellaneous gold and silver craft. .

It first uses gold, silver or other metal wires or pieces to embed on the surface of the bronze ware to form a pattern.

Then use a staggered stone (that is, a whetstone) to polish the embedded metal wires staggeredly, so that the surface of the utensil as a whole looks smooth and bright.

This kind of craftsmanship was very popular during the Warring States period, and gradually declined in the Eastern Han Dynasty, but this silver-stitched copper bull lamp makes people see the exquisite performance of this kind of craftsmanship in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

This silver-stitched copper bull lamp from the Eastern Han Dynasty is not only exquisite in design, but also cleverly used the colors of copper and silver in two different materials to form an exquisite color match.

The copper bull lamp is smooth and exquisite in craftsmanship.

Except for the lampshade, the whole body is decorated with silver moiré patterns.

There are dragons, phoenixes, tigers and deer flying among the cloud patterns.

The pattern lines are round and smooth, flying and elegant.

This utensil must be the best work of the perfect combination of practicality and art among the many bronze lamps in the Han Dynasty.

The appearance of this silver-copper bull lamp in the Eastern Han Dynasty further proves that as early as more than 2000 years ago, the Chinese people were already aware of environmental protection in the design of bronze lamps.

This is not an exception, because there is an even better Changxin Palace Lantern!

It can be said that this invention is also in a leading position in the history of lamps and lanterns in the world.

Of course, if such a lamp is not enough to prove anything, then add the Changxin Palace Lantern.

If this does not prove the environmental awareness of the ancient Chinese people, then add a goose fish lamp.

Chen Wenzhe really didn't expect that just after he finished sorting out the copper bull lamp, he found another goose fish lamp.

The Yanyu lanterns and Yanzu lanterns of the Western Han Dynasty are very famous.

The shape of the Yanzu lamp is relatively simple. It is a kind of bronze lamp with a disc shape of Yanzu in the Han Dynasty. There is not much to say about this.

The goose fish lamp is very talkative. The Western Han Dynasty goose fish lamp in Chen Wenzhe's hands is vivid in shape and exquisite in craftsmanship. It must be a rare art treasure.

With the advancement of civilization in human society, the concept of energy saving and emission reduction has become more and more popular. When remanufacturing lamps, we also strive for the perfect unity of environmental protection, practicality and pleasing to the eye.

However, as early as the Han Dynasty more than 2000 years ago, the ancients with great wisdom and creativity created a copper lamp that integrated art and environmental protection - the bronze goose fish lamp.

Let's not talk about the ingenuity of the design, let's talk about the craftsmanship first.

This goose fish lamp is all made of copper, and the whole is in the shape of a swan goose looking back and holding a fish.

The goose has a crown on the forehead, round eyes, slender neck, wide and fat body.

It has wings cast on both sides of its body, a short tail upturned, two feet standing side by side, and webbed palms.

The goose's beak is opened to hold a fish. The body of the fish is short and fat, and the lampshade is connected under it.

The crowns of geese are painted in red, and the bodies of geese and fish are painted in emerald green.

And on the geese, fish and the screen of the lampshade, the feathers, scales and dragon patterns are drawn with ink lines.

The goose fish lamp is 34.5 centimeters long and 53 centimeters high.

The goose fish lamp is composed of four parts: the head and neck of the goose (with fish), the body of the goose, the lamp panel and the lampshade.

The neck of the goose and the body of the goose are connected by the mouth of the son and mother.

The body of the fish, the neck of the goose, and the body cavity are hollow and connected.

The lamp panel is round, with straight walls and a shallow belly, with two straight walls inside.

A lamp handle is attached on one side to control the rotation of the lamp panel.

There is a ring foot under the plate, which is connected with the straight wall ring edge on the back of the goose with a female mouth.

The lampshade is two arc-shaped plates, the upper part of which is inserted into the edge of the straight wall in the lamp panel, and can be opened and closed by turning left and right, which can not only block the wind, but also adjust the illuminance of the light.

When the lamp is lit, the smoke is introduced into the body of the goose through the neck of the fish and the goose, which prevents the pollution of the indoor air by the oil fume.

The four parts of the Yanyu lamp can be disassembled and assembled freely, which is convenient for scrubbing.

The feathers and scales of geese are painted with lacquer on the copper lamp, and they are painted in four colors of black, white, red and green. The painting is simple and general.

Wild goose, in ancient my country, is a kind of letter bird, which is mostly used as a gift for marriage or as a gift when doctors meet.

Decorative themes such as flying geese and fish have appeared on painted pottery as early as the Neolithic Age, and they were especially common in the Han Dynasty.

Generally, because "fish" and "yu" have the same pronunciation, and "fish" is a symbol of harvest and wealth, this kind of decorative theme must have entrusted people's desire for a better and rich life at that time.

This is the low-carbon environmentally friendly lamp made by the ancients, and there must be more than one kind of such lamp, and it must not be the only three mentioned by Chen Wenzhe, but there are many.

The bronze lamps and lanterns of the Han Dynasty come in various forms, and the casting process is exquisite and practical.

Most of the shapes are based on auspicious themes, such as goose foot lanterns, red bird lanterns, cow lanterns, sheep lanterns, branch lanterns, etc. Copper bull lanterns and wild goose fish lanterns are just two of them.

The reason why Changxin palace lanterns are famous and precious is actually because of the inscriptions on them.

Speaking of inscriptions, there are also some sayings in it.

Chen Wenzhe didn't know much about it before, that is, he came to the South China Sea. There are too many antiques and cultural relics related to the Han Dynasty.

Now he is very clear that the Changxin Palace Lantern is also a copper lamp. There are nine inscriptions engraved on some parts of the lamp body, with a total of 65 characters.

The interesting place is above this inscription.

The inscription here is similar to that Zenghou Yizun plate, and it has also been re-engraved, more precisely, it should be engraved!

Around the bottom of the lamp base of the upper part of the Changxin Palace Lantern, there is an inscription "Changxin is still in the bath, the capacity is one liter less than half a liter, the weight is six catties, one hundred and eighty-nine, and the inside is lying down".

Careful observation shows that the handwriting is a bit scribbled, and it may have been engraved later, so "Changxin Shangyu" does not seem to be the original owner of this lamp.

The original owner should be engraved first, and the handwriting is relatively neat.

Therefore, there are six inscriptions with the words "Yangxinjia" on the lamp body, indicating that the palace lantern originally belonged to Liu Jie's family of Yihou Yangxin.

That palace lantern also has the word "Changxin", which was used in Changxin Palace, the residence of Empress Dowager Dou, hence the name "Changxin Palace Lantern".

As I said before, there are inscriptions, which record history, and artifacts that prove a historical fact are more precious.

However, this Changxin Palace Lantern is a restorer. When the archaeologists opened the tomb, the Changxin Palace Lantern was scattered all over the place, and it was not in its complete form.

The tomb where the Changxin Palace Lantern was unearthed is not very strong because the top of the tomb's main chamber is a two-slope structure.

Therefore, the roof of the eastern half of the main room collapsed, and the Changxin Palace Lantern, which was originally placed on several tables, fell to the ground and fell apart.
