    Description

    A genuine ancient Chinese bronze Yue war axe blade made during the Western Zhou Dynasty 1046-770 B.C. measuring 10 cm long x 10 cm wide. Weight is 111 gr. A portion of the tang has broken off sometime in the past. Photos of "The History of Steel in Eastern Asia exhibit in the Macao Museum of Art Bronze to Steel Article" illustrate examples of my item and are comparable in size to this piece. The item is very stable with very manageable corrosion. The bird motif at the tang is comparable to other Western Zhou types like this.
