Notes

This Yuan (Mongols) Dynasty rhyton is unique and rare. The design of a Bull with wings of Phoenixes and another Phoenix on the lower left of rhyton is very imaginative,esp. using the Phoenixes as wings. Wonder what is the symbolism ? The Bull is very Masculine and horns are twisted. The rear of the Vase/Rhyton is decorated with external spirals incoporating a link Jade ring still intact. Superb specimen of Yuan Dynasty antique Jade!
