Changxin Palace Lamp — 長信宮燈 Museum Inspired Magnet Replica

This DynastVault museum-inspired magnet replica takes the Changxin Palace Lamp as its visual reference. It is a contemporary product, distinct from the original artifact.

Artifact Story

The original gilt-bronze lamp dates to the Western Han dynasty and was excavated in 1968 from the tomb of Dou Wan at Mancheng. It takes the form of a kneeling palace attendant. Six separately cast sections can be assembled and removed; the raised right arm forms a smoke passage into the hollow body, while the lamp tray and shade can be adjusted to direct light.
