Antique Chinese Export Silver Battle Mug with Dragon Handle
-
Description
Chinese export silver mug, ca 1880. Straight and upward tapering sides with allover low-relief battle frieze depicting soldiers—spearmen, lancers, and swordsmen—with a few hapless members of the flag corps wandering into the thick of things. In background (that is, at top) peacetime is represented by houses and trees. On front applied heraldic shield (vacant). Cast dragon handle—a horned scaly, serpentine serpent gripping the side with talons. Gilt-washed interior. Marked. Very good condition with deep patina.
Overall dimensions: H 6 x W 5 3/4 x D 3 1/4 in. Weight: 12 troy ounces. #BZ590 -
