Sword of Goujian/越王勾践剑:

The Sword of Goujian (Chinese: 越王勾践剑; pinyin: Yuèwáng Gōujiàn jiàn) is a tin bronze sword, renowned for its unusual sharpness, intricate design and resistance to tarnish rarely seen in artifacts of similar age. The sword is generally attributed to Goujian, one of the last kings of Yue during the Spring and Autumn period.

In 1965, the sword was found in an ancient tomb in Hubei. It is currently in the possession of the Hubei Provincial Museum.

【Histoty Note】Late Warring States Period·Noble Women Fashion

The attire of noblewomen in the late Warring States period, as reconstructed in this collection, is based on a comprehensive examination of garments and textiles unearthed from the Chu Tomb No. 1 at Mashan, Jiangling, as well as other artifacts from the same period.

During the late Warring States period, both noble men and women favored wearing robes that were connected from top to bottom. These garments were predominantly made of gauze, silk, brocade, and satin, with silk edging. From the Chu Tomb No. 1 at Mashan, there were discoveries of robes entirely embroidered or embroidered fragments. The embroidery technique employed was known as "locked stitches," which gave the patterns a three-dimensional, lively appearance, rich in decoration.

The two reconstructed robes in this collection consist of an inner robe made of plain silk with striped silk edging, and an outer robe made of brocade, embroidered with phoenixes and floral patterns, with embroidered satin edging. Following the structural design of clothing found in the Mashan Chu Tomb, rectangular fabric pieces were inserted at the junction of the main body, sleeves, and lower garment of the robe. Additionally, an overlap was made at the front of the main body and the lower garment to enlarge the internal space for better wrapping around the body curves. Furthermore, the waistline of the lower garment was not horizontal but inclined upward at an angle, allowing the lower hem to naturally overlap, forming an "enter" shape, facilitating movement.

The layered edging of the collars and sleeves of both inner and outer robes creates a sense of rhythm, with the two types of brocade patterns complementing each other, resulting in a harmonious effect. Apart from the robes, a wide brocade belt was worn around the waist, fastened with jade buckle hooks, and adorned with jade pendants, presenting an elegant and noble figure.

The reconstructed hairstyle draws inspiration from artifacts such as the jade dancer from the late Warring States period unearthed at the Marquis of Haihun Tomb in Nanchang, and the jade dancer from the Warring States period unearthed at Jin Village in Luoyang. It features a fan-shaped voluminous hairdo on the crown, with curled hair falling on both sides, and braided hair gathered at the back. The Book of Songs, "Xiao Ya: Duren Shi," vividly depicts the flowing curls of noblewomen during that period. Their images of curly-haired figures in long robes were also depicted in jade artifacts and other relics, becoming emblematic artistic representations.

The maturity and richness of clothing art in the late Warring States period were unparalleled in contemporary world civilizations, far beyond imagination. It witnessed the transition of Chinese civilization into the Middle Ages. The creatively styled garments and intricate fabric patterns from the Warring States period carry the unique essence, mysterious imagination, and ultimate romanticism of that era, serving as an endless source of artistic inspiration.

A Sword and Scabbard, in the style of the XI-XIIth centuries.

The blade itself follows one of the possible construction methods of the time, albeit being made of modern materials: a layer of high carbon steel forge-welded between lower carbon alloy. Thus hard steel is kept for the edges, and softer metal for the rest - which was also the point, as the fuller sports on both sides an inlay is brass, and although what it spells is not really historically accurate, the lettering at least is.

The straight Cross and Brazil Nut Pommel are of old iron with a nice, rich pattern, and both were made the "old way", with hammer and fire, according to methods I documented over the course of my PhD.

The Grip is vegetable tanned leather over linen thread over wood.

The scabbard is lined with parchment, and is made of beech wood covered in linen cloth - wrapped over near the point - and vegetable tanned leather. The decoration was made by gluing flax thread and leather cuts over the linen, and is inspired by folio 89 of the ms.002 (tome II) in the City Library of Boulogne-sur-mer.

The suspension system was heavily inspired by the wonderful scabbard in the treasury of the Bamberg cathedral (thanks to Roland Warzecha a.k.a. Dimicator for sharing this with us all), though here I used calf leather.

Chape is hand-forged in steel, and heat-blued.

It is 1018 mm long, with a 888 mm blade, 40 mm wide and 4.65 mm thick at its base. The span of the cross is 205 mm.

And although quite light (771 grams) it is still a powerful cutter, with a center of gravity some 18 cm down the blade.

Making this set was quite the learning experience, as it often is, and that's also one of the highlights of this trade.

Thanks to all who made this possible.
