Inspired by one of China’s most renowned archaeological discoveries, this collector’s piece pays tribute to the famed bronze sword of King Goujian of Yue from the Spring & Autumn period. The original, celebrated for its superb craftsmanship and near-perfect preservation after more than two thousand years underground, remains an icon of ancient Chinese metallurgy.
Our version features the distinctive profile and patterned blade styling that closely resemble the historic artifact. Most notably, the blade carries bird-worm seal script inscriptions, faithfully mirrored from the archaeological find. The inscription reads: “越王鸠浅” and “自乍用鐱”, which scholars such as Tang Lan interpreted as:
“The Sword of King Goujian of Yue — made for his personal use.”
While this is not an official licensed replica, the sword is meticulously crafted to capture the authentic look and grandeur of the legendary original — a meaningful addition for collectors passionate about China’s early military heritage.
Display it proudly as a symbol of resilience, ambition, and the enduring legacy of King Goujian.
