Bronze ware from the Shang Dynasty, "Wine Vessel Gu"
This wine vessel is currently housed in the Minneapolis Museum of Art in the United States. Gu wine vessel is a tall and elegant wine glass with a compact shape, with a trumpet shaped top, gradually narrowing in the middle, and slightly expanding outward at the bottom. Archaeological evidence shows that bronze wine vessels first appeared during the Erligang Culture period of the Shang Dynasty (1500-1300 BC). Gu wine vessels were most popular during the Shang Dynasty (1600-1046 BC), but became relatively rare in the early Western Zhou Dynasty (1046-977 BC) and gradually disappeared during the Eastern Zhou Dynasty (770-256 BC).
