Similar to the practice of multiple boxes, it is a divided box box.
It does not place the child's box inside the mother's box, but uses thin plates to separate the internal space.
Usually double-layered, but only divided into one layer;
Most people in the Nanbei Lake area are on the lower level, while Hui and Su are on the upper level.
The piece from Tomb No. 28, Jingzhou Gaotai, Beihu, is divided into five grids on the bottom floor, with a rectangular grid in the middle, three triangular grids and a circular grid on both sides;
In order to match the shape of the mother-in-law, the edges are often curved.
The grid walls are made of thin wooden boards in advance and embedded in the casket.
The top of the cover, the center of the middle layer and the bottom of each grid are painted with phoenix birds in red, blue and black paint.
In particular, the phoenix bird in the four small boxes has a curved neck and a long tail. The shape is extremely tense and the technique is extremely concise, showing superb painting skills.
Excavated from Tomb No. 1 of Tianchang Triangle Wei in Hui Province, the upper level is divided into three small comb boxes, with a round cover on top;
Among them, the bronze mirror with dragon pattern is 19.5 centimeters in diameter and is placed separately in the container.
Among them, the dowry box found in Mrs. Hao Cai’s Tomb No. 1 was filled with many “hard-to-recognize” things.
Through research and development, people in the Han Dynasty were very particular about using horny combs and wooden combs separately. Wooden combs cannot comb wet hair, while horny combs cannot comb dry hair.
Before the Mawangdui Han Tomb was opened, in addition to the wet corpse of the world-famous Lady Xin Zhui, many national treasures were also unearthed.
It can be seen that a minor figure in history should be buried here.
Mawangdui Township in Husha has several ancient names that have been circulating here.
Thanks to the diligent excavation efforts of archaeologists, the Mawangdui Tomb, where 2,000 years were buried, was finally revealed to the light of day.
Today you often say "design serves people", but the ancients actually did this.
In 1971, the villagers of Mawangdui Township responded to the national call and built a small air-raid shelter here.
In modern times, even poor people cannot afford to buy some horn combs, which are used to comb dry hair, so you must remember them.
Since the upper body of the vessel is embedded in the mother-case, it can also be called the "inner box".
Some experts believe that it is used to brush hair with pomade, similar to modern hair wax.
While excavating Mrs. Hao Cai's Tomb No. 1, archaeological experts discovered an exquisite "double-layered four-child bed".
Every place on the dowry is painted with cloud patterns in eight colors: gold, white and red, and other places are filled with red paint.
The first is the horny tweezers. Don’t think that tweezers were invented by modern talents. As early as 2000 years ago, the ancients had not invented rough tweezers.
There is no Qiluo cover on both sides, and there is a belt under the waist, one with a white edge and the other with a red edge.
The tweezers unearthed in the tomb are horny, with a total length of about 19.9cm. The head of the tweezers is in the shape of a pointed cone, and the other end is a tweezer piece that can be installed and disassembled at will. It is a dual-purpose equipment of tapered tweezers.
Immediately after reporting the matter, a professional archaeological team arrived at the site and completed a professional archaeological excavation.
The dowry, on the other hand, collects scattered utensils into one place for easy placement and portability.
The emergence of multi-zither boxes has well satisfied the Han people's needs for storage functions.
It has been confirmed by archaeological experts that it is Mrs. Xin Zhui's exclusive "vanity box".
When you carefully sort out the shape, decoration, function and evolution of ancient utensils, do you feel that they are very similar to some modern utensils?
The mirror has a rough and smooth surface, but it can still reflect the human image before cleaning.
Boxes with different shapes, sizes, and patterns can be stored to distinguish various types of cosmetics and toiletries.
For such a legendary thing, Shao Zi Lian is definitely one of them.
Is it that few modern people know that? And few can afford it without paying attention to it?
The things before that are difficult to identify, such as brown tea.
Even if you have a little understanding of it, you won't be able to identify it.
The connection between the cone and the tweezers was specially carved into a bird's head by craftsmen and engraved with geometric patterns, showing the rough and elegant aristocratic life of Mrs. Xin Zhui.
The "double-layered four-child bed" is 20.8cm high and 35.2cm in diameter. It is made of white brown lacquerware and has oil-painted gold foil paper attached underneath.
On the back is a pattern made of dragons and clouds, and two crimson ribbons are installed under the buttons, which should have been used by the ancients for decoration.
What exactly is inside? That requires careful study.
The use of brown brush has always been controversial, and no experts believe that it is a brush used to decorate sideburns.
The body of the dolman is painted all over and has many silver buckles, making it much more gorgeous than those produced in Hubei in the early Western Han Dynasty.
There is no dowry in each slot. The cosmetics in the dowry include rouge, powder puff, comb, grate, sweater, etc.
The two sides cannot be folded in half. It is an extremely rough living utensil and is used to mend clothes and beautify the attire of nobles.
In that kind of ancient dressing box, or storage box, apart from the comb, the most difficult thing to identify is not the bronze mirror.
Of course, there is a problem with plastic combs. They are not much different from horn combs, but they are very delicate and cannot be used no matter how you use them.
These include the "Tomb of the Seven Empresses", the "Tomb of Two Men" and the "Tomb of the Princess of Changsha".
Among the eight mirrors unearthed from the tomb of Mrs. Xin Zhui, one is a horn mirror and the other two are bronze mirrors.
The material is neither horny nor wooden, and the shape is mostly horseshoe-shaped. They are usually placed in large boxes that are also horseshoe-shaped.
This kind of divided-lattice box can play a very good storage role like the multi-part box box. The space can be divided more freely, and the production is much easier. It can be regarded as a practical design.
The first is the corner comb, which is difficult to identify because you are still using it.
As a result, the villagers discovered that the soil here was of the same quality and believed they might have dug an ancient tomb.
The handles used to bind the palms are painted with white paint and surrounded by several circles of red threads.
When you first saw those things, you were confused about what they were used for, until you discovered the treasure hidden outside.
In Tomb No. 1, eight sets of combs were unearthed.
The fact that so few "cosmetics" were unearthed from Mrs. Hao Cai's tomb clearly shows the superior life of the old lady. The brown fuss unearthed from the tomb was made of brown silk bundles, and its small state is not much like the brushes in your daily life.
.
The shocking wet corpse of Mrs. Xin Zhui in Mawangdui was unearthed from the tomb, and less than 8,000 precious cultural relics have been unearthed one after another.
The more famous one should be the "Four Boxes" found in Hao Cai's coffin. When it was first discovered, things outside were forbidden, so experts asked: What are they?
The "double-layered four-child bed" is divided into two upper layers. On the lower layer, eight pairs of gloves, a silk cotton scarf, a belt, and a "longevity embroidered" mirror coat on silk were found.
The "needle coat" is 16cm long and 8.8cm narrow, and is shaped like a curtain made of thin bamboo.
The famous plain gauze Zen clothes were also unearthed from here, which is said to be a monumental discovery in the archaeological cause of our country.
On the upper floor is the cosmetics area, which has 9 grooves.
Apart from the knitwear, there is not even a unique "knitwear" in the dowry.
It is not just a piece of knitted clothing, but a "clothes" for needlework, used to place needlework.
