Ancient Chinese Qin Copper Bronze Chariot And Horses Model 3 Of – Display Base Canopy
The original sleeps in a Xi'an museum; this one can live in your study. The four horses comes through clearly in the listing photos. Expect the canopy to look just as it does in the listing pictures.
A small nameplate identifies the piece for visitors. The display base keeps the whole scene stable and presentable. The canopy roof shades the driver, just as on the two-thousand-year-old original. Reins, yoke, and wheels are all rendered in fine detail. The nameplate sets this one apart from plainer pieces in the same range. A closer look at the listing photos shows the display base worked in with care. Gold claw feet lift the display base with a touch of ceremony. It is modeled on the celebrated Qin bronze chariots unearthed beside the Terracotta Army.
Display it where the light catches the bronze. History you can put on a shelf. Two millennia of craft, scaled to your desk.
