Ting Caldron, bronze with black inlay, inscribed. There are three pillar like legs under a semi spherical body, with two rectangular loop handles. The body is divided by small ridges into six parts, each containing a dragon. Where their heads butt at one of the divisions, a t'ao t'ieh mask is formed. Above this, there are two in each part, forming a frieze.
