Jue wine vessel, 12th–11th C BCE

3D Model

Jue wine vessel, 12th–11th C BCE, now in the collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Art.

From the object’s description on artsmia.org:

This is an improved model from a previous upload here.

“This jue is typical of the late Shang dynasty. Unusually, the taotie (composite animal) mask around the bowl’s waist is blown open, that is, the mask’s principal components are disconnected, its horns, shield, and C-shaped mouth line are so filled with spirals that they almost merge with the similarly decorated background. “

About this 3D model: We’ve made a specularity map from the diffuse texture to make the Sketchfab view more like the original’s color and specularity. Check out the Model Inspector to see the customizations.
