青铜镜看这里!精品推荐—葵纹青铜镜

铜镜是青铜制成的古代使用器物，也是精美的工艺品。

据史料记载，自商周时代起，古人就用青铜磨光做镜子，光亮可照人，背面雕有精美纹饰。到战国时已很流行，汉、唐时更加精美。

汉代金文透光铜镜

汉代透光铜镜的发明是铸镜工艺的又一里程碑。透光镜发明于西汉时期，外形与普通镜一样。但当光线照在镜面上时，镜面相对的墙上，会反映出镜背花纹和铭文的影像，古人称之为“幻镜”。中国古代学者早就发现了透光镜的透光效应。《太平广记》记载：隋王度所得到的古镜“承日照之，则背上文画墨入影内，纤毫无损”。

宋代周密《云烟过眼录》、沈括《梦溪笔谈》、金代麻九畴《赋伯玉透光镜》诗、明代郎瑛《七修类稿》、清代郑复光《镜镜（铃）痴》等，对透光镜都有记载和研究。解放以后，首先在上海发现了两件透光镜，并经上海交通大学研究复制成功，终于揭开了“幻镜”之谜。研究表明，铜镜透光是铜镜在冷却和加工研磨镜面的过程中产生的内应力所致。在铸镜时，镜薄处先冷，厚处后冷，而铜的收缩性大，使镜面各部分出现了与镜背图文相对应的凸凹不平和曲率差异，从而造成了图文虽然在背面，镜面却隐然有些迹象。所以一经日光照射，背面的纹饰就会反射出来。

该铜镜背部单钮，有黑漆古包浆，分内外两层图案，外层以半圆形花瓣组成，绘鼓钉纹，草叶纹，内部图案为方形，有金文环绕，文字精美清晰，十分罕见珍贵。

中国是世界上最早使用铜镜的地区之一，铜镜因镜背多有精美图案铭文纹饰，成为古代青铜器中独成体系的精美工艺品。铜镜背面铸铭文是战国晚期出现的一种新式样。经过西汉早期的发展，至汉武帝以后，铭文逐渐成为铜镜纹饰的重要组成部分，成为汉代铜镜一个显著特征。

这件铜镜有明显的黑漆古包浆，正面锈迹斑驳，属于开门见老的藏品，真品无疑，在青铜器收藏里讲究铭文，有铭文的青铜器价格要高出数倍，这件青铜镜不仅有铭文，能确定年代，而是有着漂亮的黑漆古包浆，更可贵的是它还是青铜镜中传说的透光镜，此镜历史研究价值极高，收藏潜力巨大，建议收藏，传世。

英文翻译：Bronze mirror is an ancient bronze ware and exquisite handicraft. The earliest bronze mirror was unearthed from the Qijia Culture tomb about 4,000 years ago. It is 6 centimeters in diameter and 0.3 centimeters thick. The mirror is shiny.

According to historical records, since the Shang and Zhou dynasties, ancient people used bronze polishing to make mirrors, which were bright enough to shine on people and had exquisite patterns carved on the back. To the Warring States period was very popular, han, Tang more exquisite.

Han Dynasty gold transparent bronze mirror

The invention of transparent bronze mirror in Han Dynasty is another milestone of mirror casting technology. The dioptric mirror was invented in the Western Han Dynasty. But when the light falls on the mirror, the wall opposite the mirror reflects the image of the back pattern and inscriptions, which the ancients called "magic mirror". Ancient Chinese scholars have long discovered the transmission effect of dioptric mirrors. "Taiping Guang Ji" records: Sui Wang Du got the ancient mirror "bear sunshine, then the above painting ink into the shadow, fine damage".

In the Song Dynasty, Mi Mi's "Record of The Passing of Clouds and Smoke", Shen Kuo's "Meng Xi Bi Tan", Ma Jiuchou's poem "Fu Bo Yu Penetrating Mirror" in the Jin Dynasty, Lang Ying's "Seven Xiu Class Manuscripts" in the Ming Dynasty, and Zheng Fuguang's "Mirror Mirror (Bell) Chi" in the Qing Dynasty have all been recorded and studied on the penetrating mirror. After liberation, two transparent mirrors were first discovered in Shanghai and successfully replicated by Shanghai Jiao Tong University, finally revealing the mystery of "phantom mirrors". The results show that the transmission of light is caused by the internal stress in the process of cooling and grinding the mirror. When casting the mirror, the thin part of the mirror is cold first, and the thick part is cold after, and the shrinkage of copper is large, so that the mirror part appeared and the mirror image on the back of the corresponding convex and concave uneven and curvature difference, thus causing the image and text although on the back, the mirror is concealed some signs. So when the sun hits it, the markings on the back reflect back.

The single button on the back of this bronze mirror is covered with black lacquer ancient paste. It is divided into two layers of patterns inside and outside. The outer layer is composed of semicircular petals, painted with drum nail pattern and grass leaf pattern.

China is one of the earliest regions in the world to use bronze mirrors. Because of the exquisite patterns and inscriptions on the back of the mirrors, bronze mirrors have become a unique system of exquisite handicrafts in ancient bronze ware. The inscriptions on the back of the bronze mirror were a new style in the late Warring States period. After the development of the early Western Han Dynasty, after emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty, the inscriptions gradually became an important part of the bronze mirror decoration, a prominent feature of the Han Dynasty bronze mirror.

This bronze mirror has obvious black paint old wrapped slurry, positive rotting, belong to the collection of the door to me, the real, no doubt, in pay attention to the inscriptions, bronze collection with inscriptions of bronze price several times higher, this not only with inscriptions, bronze mirror to determine s, but has a beautiful black paint old wrapped slurry, is more valuable is that it is bronze legend through light microscope in the mirror, This mirror historical research value is very high, the collection potential is huge, suggested collection, handed down.
