It was difficult to determine which one was the most expensive because the value of different cultural relics would be affected by many factors, including the scarcity of cultural relics, historical significance, cultural value, and so on. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

In the Tang Dynasty, there was a famous pipa cultural relic, the mother-of-pearl rosewood five-string pipa. This was the only remaining five-stringed pipa cultural relic in the world. It was now hidden in the Shokuin of the Todai Temple in Nara, Japan. It was an old collection of the Japanese Emperor Shengmu. After his death, the treasure was dedicated to the Shokuin. In the Tang Dynasty, pipa was generally four-stringed, and five-stringed pipa had a unique design. It was popular in the Central Plains during the prosperous Tang Dynasty. The pipa was exquisitely made of red sandalwood. It was 108.5 centimeters long and 31 centimeters wide. Using mother-of-pearl craftsmanship, conch shells or seashells were ground into various patterns, shapes, or thin slices, which were embedded on the surface of the object. The front of the pipa was a scene of musicians riding camels and playing the pipa. The back was inlaid with extremely gorgeous flowers. Since the Song Dynasty, the five-stringed pipa had been lost in China. Today, there were only imitations in China. The picture of the flying goddess playing the five-stringed pipa in the Dunhuang murals became one of the ways for people to understand the appearance of the five-stringed pipa in the Tang Dynasty. This cultural relic was a witness to the cultural exchange between China and Japan, reflecting the historical style of the Tang Dynasty at its peak. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
There were many types of cultural relics and hair ornaments in the Han Dynasty. Judging from the jewelry of the empress, it was modeled after fake knots (bun), buyao, and hairpin. In the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties,"buyao" was renamed "flower tree", but in the Han Dynasty,"flower tree" had not been called this name. In the Han Dynasty, there was a custom of "hairpin pen". Civil officials would pin the brush on their heads. For example, the "White Horse Writing" brush unearthed from the ancient tomb of the Han Dynasty in the Gansu Province Museum had a blunt tip at the end of the pen so that it could be inserted into the hair bun. The hairpin brush changed from an ordinary brush to a "hairpin white pen" that had not been dipped in ink, becoming a kind of "identity symbol". Hairpins were quite common after the Neolith Age and were used by both men and women. Until the late Qing Dynasty, it was an important practical decorative ornament for the ancients, especially for women. The Han Dynasty was no exception. Although there were not many jewelry objects unearthed in the Han Dynasty, the excavation of important Han tombs such as Mawangdui Han Tomb, Mancheng Han Tomb, Guishan Han Tomb, Haiying Marquis Tomb and so on provided rich information for understanding Han Dynasty clothing and jewelry. In addition, it was very common for civilians to wear turbans in the Qin and Han Dynasties, but the turbans used by civilians were different from those used by nobles. The turbans were probably wrapped with narrow strips of cloth at the beginning. In the Han Dynasty, it was improved into a hat with a high top on the head that could cover the bun and neat edges on the four sides. Its scope of application continued to expand, and the style continued to improve, such as adding ear protectors on both sides or combining with the hair crown. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
There were many kinds of wine vessels and cultural relics in the Han Dynasty. From the material, there were lacquer ware, bronze ware, pottery, gold and silver ware, jade ware, and so on. Among them, lacquer wine vessels were more common. For example, more than 700 pieces of lacquer ware were unearthed from three Han tombs in Mawangdui, Changsha, including small lacquer daggers, large plates with a diameter of 53 cm and large pots with a height of 58 cm. The wine vessels commonly used in the Han Dynasty were mostly lacquer ware. The wine vessels were used to hold wine, the ladle was used to pour wine, and the ear cup was used to drink wine. Lacquerware was mostly made of wood, but there were also linens made of raw lacquer. It was resistant to moisture, high temperature, and corrosion. It also had gorgeous colors and various decorative methods. There were exquisite colored paintings, needle-pricked cone paintings, and gold and jade inlaid ornaments. The shape was elegant. Although no specific cultural relics were mentioned in terms of bronze ware, bronze wine vessels had been developed before the Han Dynasty, and some bronze craftsmen would imitate the lacquer ware process to make bronze ware. Porcelain wine vessels also existed in the development of wine vessels in the Han Dynasty. As social productivity developed, they were gradually replaced by other materials. Gold, silver and jade wine vessels were also part of the wine vessels of the Han Dynasty, reflecting the richness of the wine vessels at that time. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
According to the available information, there were not many jewelry unearthed in the Han Dynasty. At present, the excavation of several important Han tombs such as Mawangdui Han Tomb, Mancheng Han Tomb, Guishan Han Tomb, Haiying Marquis Tomb, etc. provided information for understanding the Han Dynasty clothing jewelry, but did not explicitly mention the specific situation of the golden hairpin cultural relics. The Book of the Later Han Dynasty mentioned that all the wives of the empresses had hairpins, but it seemed that it was difficult to find traces of hairpins in the cultural relics of the Han Dynasty that had been seen so far. The clear image of hairpins appeared in the paintings of ancient characters in later generations. Therefore, it was difficult to give a more accurate description of the Han Dynasty's golden hairpin cultural relics. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
