The most beautiful April day in the world, Jiangcheng is full of flowers. In this most beautiful season in Wuhan, how can we live up to the good time? In addition to seizing the time to enjoy the flowers, you can also go to the museum to look for traces of "spring", so that those ingenious "spring color" cultural relics can refresh your inherent impression of the national treasure "solemn, cold, and low-key", and fill the atmosphere of spring.

Pink straw cups?

If you want to choose the color that best represents spring, "pink" must be ranked high, and similarly, the cultural relics with the most spring atmosphere should also choose pink, such as the pastel autumn exercise cup in the collection of the Wuhan Museum.

Pastel autumn drill cup

The autumn drill cup is a special commemorative cup made to commemorate the autumn drill of the Qing army during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, and it is a rare official kiln work with a commemorative nature in the history of Chinese official kilns. According to the staff of the Wuhan Museum, the pastel autumn exercise cup in the museum's collection is a pink peony-shaped cup, with a green flower stem-shaped stalk, beautiful shape, moving glaze, and the details of the petals are very textured.

On the back of the handle, the time and place of the exercise are written in ink, and the side paragraph is "the commemorative cup of autumn exercises near Taihu Lake in Anhui Province in the 34th year of Guangxu". Compared with the heavy bronze artifacts commonly seen by the audience, the pastel autumn exercise cup with fresh color matching gives people a sense of agility and lightness, and the beauty level is directly off the charts, waiting for the audience to take pictures and send them to the circle of friends in the museum.

What's more worth mentioning is that the handle of the utensil is hollow and communicates with the cup, so it can also be called a suction cup. The young ladies who drink milk tea with straws in 2024 didn't expect it, in fact, as early as more than 1,000 years ago in the Tang Dynasty, the "ancestors" had already created ancient straw cups, and the aesthetics were extremely online, and the ingenuity was admirable. If you want to find some inspiration for your milk tea cup, go to the Wuhan Museum to learn the details of pastel autumn cup.

In addition to the pink suction cup, the Ming Dynasty agate plum blossom cup in the Wuhan Museum is also unforgettable, and the transparent color of yellow and white is really pleasing to the eye.

Agate plum cup

The staff of Wuhan Museum told Jimu News reporter that the name of "agate" began in the Han Dynasty, and Emperor Wen of Wei Cao Pi once wrote "Agate Lefu", praising its "bright and beautiful buds, with the streamer of the bright sun", which shows his love for agate. This agate plum blossom cup in the collection of Wuhan Museum is carved from a whole piece of agate, with yellow and white as the main colors, with yellow bands, beautiful colors and smooth texture. The edge of the mouth is carved into the shape of a six-petaled plum blossom, and the outer wall is represented by a deep inscribed line. The cup ears are decorated with two plum blossoms, blooming proudly and with ingenuity.

The gentle and pink autumn cup, the crystal clear agate cup, are such cultural relics very suitable for the spring in Wuhan?

Speaking of pink cultural relics, the Qing Qianlong Hibiscus Stone Pan Ear Cover Furnace of the Nanjing Museum is definitely a "top stream" level existence. The utensils are not only the super "Internet celebrity" of the Nanjing Museum, nicknamed "Little Powder" by the audience, but also the "big cultural and creative sales" of the museum.

The "small pink" is 17 centimeters high and 14.9 centimeters in diameter, and the whole is pink, made of hibiscus stone. According to the official information of the Nanjing Museum, hibiscus stone is a kind of quartz, also known as "pink quartz", its texture is brittle and brittle when polished, and is often used to create small jewelry.

The whole body of the utensil is covered with natural textures of different lengths and sizes, and the shape is ancient and thick, and the carving is fine. The abdomen of the utensil is carved with two symmetrical groups of cockroaches and the head of the shop with ringed ears, and the top of the cover is carved with four small cockroaches.

Of course, compared with these ingenious carving details, the audience is more likely to be hit by the overly outstanding external beauty of "Xiao Pink", and it is no wonder that it can "fight its way out" in the Nanjing Museum, which has a rich collection, and become the "popular king" of cultural relics.

The Nanjing Museum has pink stars, and the Palace Museum is even more popular. Among the vast collections of the Palace Museum, there is a pink artifact that deserves to be introduced this spring: a clear tourmaline with beads and emeralds and 18 bracelets.

The bracelet is made of 18 pink tourmaline beads, the tourmaline color is soft and clear, interspersed with two emerald beads, commonly known as "Buddha head". One of the "Buddha heads" is connected with exquisite accessories, adding rich layers to the bracelet, and the overall shape is dignified and elegant.

According to the public information of the Palace Museum, the bracelet is one of the more popular ornaments of women in the Qing Dynasty, which can be worn on the wrist, played with in the palm of the finger, and can be hung on the placket. Because it is composed of 18 beads, it is named Eighteen Bracelets.

If you also have this hobby, you might as well go to the cultural and creative store of the Palace Museum to buy a bracelet of the same style as cultural relics, which may be "knowledge suddenly entered the brain".

Finally, I would like to introduce all fans of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" to the popular cultural relics of the Shenyang Palace Museum: the clear pink glass grape flower double-ring ear box.

The object is made of peach-pink glass, and the box body is made of cloisonné enamel to create a vivid grape twig, and the overall shape is extremely exquisite. It is reported that the utensils are the makeup utensils of the concubine of the Qing Dynasty, that is to say, your Huan Huan is likely to use this ear box to "tinker" with herself before seeing Shiro, I don't know if she took it to Ganlu Temple later.
