唐鎏金舞马衔杯纹银壶丨游在中国每日一景
鎏金舞马衔杯纹皮囊式银壶现藏于陕西历史博物馆。壶身呈扁圆形，模仿北方游牧民族使用的皮囊壶制成，两面以模压工艺饰有衔杯舞马纹样，骏马昂首摆尾，口衔酒杯，姿态灵动。
Housed at the Shaanxi History Museum, this exquisite gilt-silver flask is a Tang Dynasty (618-907) masterpiece. Its flattened, rounded body mimics the traditional leather waterskins of northern nomadic tribes, while both sides feature a dynamic dancing horse crafted in repousse relief, shown raising its head, swishing its tail, and holding a wine cup in its mouth.
这一纹样源自唐代宫廷流行的“舞马”助兴活动——宴饮之间，驯马随乐起舞，衔杯向皇帝祝寿。这件银壶将北方游牧民族的器物形制与唐代宫廷文化融于一体，不仅展现了当时精湛的金银器制作工艺，也折射出唐代多元文化交融的时代风貌。
This motif originates from court entertainments popular during the Xuanzong reign (712-756), where trained horses danced to music during banquets and offered cups to wish the emperor longevity. Blending nomadic utility with Tang court culture, the vessel showcases remarkable metalworking skills and the vibrant cultural synthesis of the Tang era.
