EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from ancient China, the Dagger-Axe Shaped Pendant. Dating back to the 12th-10th century BC, this pendant represents the artistic prowess of both the Shang dynasty (c. 1600-c. 1046 BC) and Western Zhou dynasty (c. 1046-771 BC). Crafted meticulously from jade, this exquisite piece measures an impressive 7.3 cm (2 7/8 in. ) in overall length. The intricate design of this pendant is truly awe-inspiring. Its shape resembles that of a dagger-axe, reflecting the military significance it may have held during its time period. The use of jade as its material further adds to its allure and symbolism since jade was highly valued for its spiritual and protective qualities by ancient Chinese civilizations. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back thousands of years to a time when skilled artisans crafted objects with meticulous attention to detail and deep cultural significance. This pendant serves as a testament to their craftsmanship and creativity. The Liszt Collection has expertly captured every minute detail of this historical treasure through their lens, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even today.
