<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 3283444, member: 97383&quot;]Mika, thanks for an interesting &amp; well researched article. I&#039;ve never owned any Chinese bronze money from the Waring States period, however, about 5 years ago I sold at auction a Waring States period carved jade pommel insert pictured below, 53 mm diameter. The center has a spinning whorl surrounded by a grain pattern. Below that jade is a Qing Dynasty copy of a Waring States jade bi disc that I still own, 77 mm diameter. The center is decorated with the grain pattern &amp; the exterior ring has an abstract pattern if bovine heads &amp; feet. The art work of the Waring States period reached a very high level equaled only in the Western Han period.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]868128[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]868130[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]868133[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]868135[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
