The first exhibition hall features a special display of exquisite gold and silver artifacts. The collection includes representative gold and silver objects spanning from the Warring States period through modern times. These artifacts boast diverse shapes and elegant designs; not only are they made of superior materials, but they also exhibit superb craftsmanship and high artistic value. Particularly noteworthy is this gold plaque ornament—a decorative item from the Warring States period, crafted entirely from pure gold and weighing 97 grams. It has a rectangular shape with an animal-face motif: the animal’s face is broad, its tongue short and peach-shaped, and the top end is shaped like the Chinese character “shan” (mountain). The ornament features a unique design and remarkably clear textures. At the time, it was primarily produced using casting techniques. Gold artifacts from the Warring States period are extremely rare, making this particular gold plaque ornament especially uncommon. It stands as a remarkable example of early Chinese gold and silver craftsmanship.
