The Chu state, noted for its lacquer production, had become the major cultural force in south-central China by the Warring States period. The visual arts of Chu are often characterized as shamanistic in response to the prevalence of images of fairylike creatures riding on dragons, or clouds that change imperceptibly into dragons, and, as they meander through the sky, transform again into dragons. The playful lines painted on this winged cup are though a later stylized version of the traditional cloud-dragon motif, combined with a repertory of fantastic animals, birds, and anthropoid figures. These elements sometimes appear interrelated in order to express a mystical idea or vision; in other instances, they seem to fulfill a narrative purpose. The two large winglike appendages on the cup are often described as ‘ears’ in Chinese writings and cups of this type, generally termed ‘ear cups’ (erbei), are known from at least the 8th century BC. The current lot was most likely once part of a matched set of eating and drinking vessels.

Literature comparison:

Compare a related lacquered ear cup, dated to the Qin dynasty 221-206 BC, 19.2 cm long, in the Nelson Atkins Museum of Art, object number 48-36/4. Compare a related lacquered ear cup with geometric designs, dated to the Warring States period, 3th century BC, 15.2 cm long, in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, object number 1974.268.4.
