The Green Dragon Crescent Blade

Material: Gilted Bronze inlaid with Silver & Copper

Time period: Qing Dynasty, 19th Century

L:48.5 W:12 (cm)

The Green Dragon Crescent Blade is a type of long blade. According to historical records and archaeological findings, the Crescent Blade first appeared in Song Dynasty. Due to its sheer weight, its main usage was for training and ceremonial purpose, not for use during war. There are examples of works with dragon motifs carved onto the blade. This is a clear demonstration of the popularity of the historical literature “the Romance of Three Kingdoms”. In it, Guan Yu was described to use such a legendary weapon. This specific blade has a rather narrow width and a dull edge. These features point towards the usage of ceremonial instruments during religious festivals and acts. It belongs to a set of thirty-six instruments, representing solemness and justice.

青龍偃月刀

材質: 青銅鎏金錯銀及紅銅

年代: 清代, 十九世紀

長:48.5 寬: 12 (厘米)

青龍偃月刀是偃月刀的其中一種。根據文獻記載及出土文物中發現,偃月刀在宋朝開始出現,因其重量關係,它主要用於訓練、儀仗或宮殿侍衛的武器而非戰爭中的武器。此例有著青龍紋飾,明顯是依「三國演義」內,關公所用兵器之描述所鑄造; 其刀身體形不大兼無開鋒,肯定是古時廟宇廟會、請神出遊或節慶時,儀仗隊的三十六執事所持法器之一,取其有神聖莊嚴正氣之意。此種出巡傳統多見於沿海地區盛行敬拜媽祖、觀音的地區,例如福建、廣東及台灣一帶。
