Han Dynasty Bronze Money Tree
The most cherished human dream is cast in bronze – the dream of money growing on trees.
Chinese custom associates the money tree with abundance and prosperity. The money tree as a burial item served to ensure that the deceased continue to prosper in the afterlife. Elephants laden with wealth roam along the branches emanating from the trunk. The ensemble of auspicious figurines refers to all kinds of blessings.
Pecuniary symbolism is combined with pretty archaic depictions of phoenixes and taotie-like (饕餮) imagery. The treetop Phoenix is a later modification of the Solar Raven, so the artifact becomes more and more related to the World Tree.
On display in Mianyang Museum (綿陽博物館), Sichuan.

Negotiation skills to increase your income 😍♟️📖🌸
