Donation of the Antoni Laurent Foundation with a complement of the Society of Friends of the Cernuschi Museum. This lian is part of a particular production characterized by a light green alloy and a fine decoration, which one would think incised, distributed over well-defined registers, separated by molded bands sometimes bearing geometric decorations. Archaeologists attribute to these pieces a southern origin (Hunan, Guizhou or Guangdong provinces).
