Speaking of the Warring States Period, everyone may remember fighting and killing, so what can be precious? Actually, it's not. Treasures were really unearthed during the Warring States period. The Warring States Crystal Cup, the treasure of Hangzhou Museum, ranks among the first batch of cultural relics forbidden to go abroad for exhibition, and is a first-class national treasure. This cup is no different from a home cup, but you can't imagine that it was invented by China people more than 2,000 years ago. Coincidentally, Ma Weidou also has the "Warring States Beer Cup". Of course, this is Ma Weidou's humorous statement. How could there be beer in the Warring States period?
This cup is very strange, and its shape is extremely modern. From the appearance, it is no different from the cup we see now. This alone is a genuine national treasure cultural relic. But the "Warring States Beer Cup" in Ma Weidou's hand is not really powerful here. Ma Weidou pointed out that the opening of this cup is everted, which is very beautiful. Ma Weidou also wanted to make a cup for people to appreciate by changing materials, but the shape of the cup was too modern, so he tried his best to find a glass factory, and people were afraid to take his job. In other words, it cannot be copied by modern technology.
Why is it so difficult to copy such a cup? In addition to the open design is difficult to imitate, the most difficult thing is the hollow design of the cup bottom. Generally speaking, the bottom of a modern cup is solid, but the cup in Ma Weidou's hand is hollow. Not only that, this hollow design is quite deep, and one finger may not reach the end. Think about it, such a thing was actually produced in China in the Warring States more than 2,000 years ago.
It seems that all the westernized tragedies used by modern people can basically be recognized by our ancestors. From the perspective of cultural relics, this collection of Ma Weidou can be said to be a national treasure. First, the manufacturing process is complicated. Modern craft can't be copied, so it is conceivable how complicated the craft was in those days, which is simply a cultural relic! Secondly, things are rare. At present, there are no similar cups in China, and even the Forbidden City is hard to see. Ma Weidou is the only one in the country. Finally, this cultural relic embodies the superb porcelain firing technology during the Warring States period in China, and its historical value is self-evident.
Generally speaking, every collection of Ma Weidou has a touching story. This Warring States beer mug doesn't match the story. Ma Weidou didn't disclose how it came from, let alone how much it cost. According to the level of cultural relics of crystal cups in the Warring States period, we can imagine the level of beer cups in Ma Weidou's hands, which you and I can't imagine. I have to say that the unparalleled Warring States beer mug in Ma Weidou's hand is not only too modern, but even glass manufacturers can't copy it. People can't help asking, how many unknown national treasures are there in Ma Weidou?
