藏品介绍：

“美玉可遇而不可求，可一而不可再”。从古至今，玉在国人的眼中一直是美好、高尚、纯洁的化身。基于玉的独特的魅力和价值，使众多喜爱者为之倾倒，不惜重金也要将宝玉收藏在手。

中国人对玉的特殊喜好自古有之，古人云，石之美者为玉。也曾有人形象的比喻，玉是大地的舍利。被誉为华夏文明第一块奠基石的高古玉，有着高深莫测的神秘色彩。在古代，君子无故古玉.玉不去身，君子与玉彼德焉。

玉璧是一种中央有穿孔的扁平状圆形玉器，为我国传统的玉礼器之一，也是“六瑞”之一。玉璧，选料极精，制作工艺极细，最早产生于距今约5、6千年前的新石器时代，其应用范围极为广泛，既是权力等级的标志，也可用于佩戴，亦能作为随葬品，同时又是社会交往中的馈赠品或信物。

战汉之玉其历史坐标承前启后，其工匠精神博大精深，其雕工技艺玲珑剔透，其艺术表现韵味悠长。绵延的龙纹寄托了君主帝王的意志和对国运的祈盼，礼天之璧被出廓的玉龙所驾驭，这就是西汉帝王的气魄。

玉璧最早出现在新石器时代，考古发现最早的玉璧是在红山文化，良渚文化也有出土玉璧。玉璧在商周时期比较兴盛，汉代以后逐渐式微。《周礼·春官·大宗伯》记载「以玉作六器，以礼天地四方：以苍璧礼天，以黄琮礼地，以青圭礼东方，以赤璋礼南方，以白琥礼西方，以玄璜礼北方」。璧的用途有很多，在各种礼仪当中，除了陈设、告祭天地神灵之外通常我们还会看到用于国与国之间的礼物馈赠和用于玩赏的更为精致的玉璧。那志良先生在《中国古玉图释》中单辟一章来谈《玩赏及馈赠器》即以璧为例来说明，用于馈赠和玩赏的玉器在造型上要有和善的气氛、在制作上是精雕细琢。所举龙纹出廓、虎纹出廓，或中部透空雕琢皆精美之至。此件透空雕螭龙纹璧，璧肉如环，一面深浮雕，一面浅浮雕两面雕刻神人车马瑞兽面纹，以几何纹分区，生动优美，极富美感。整器器型规整，纹饰线条流畅，做工精致，寓意美好，璧中部透空雕琢一只螭龙，昂首阔步，四足前后张扬，除了线条的优美，龙四足还体现出十足的肌肉体量感，动态十足。龙首双目圆睁，张口露齿，简单线条即展现出生动的形态。龙尾后翘并卷起，其上琢刻精美弦纹。

整件玉器每一个细节都展现出战国玉器的最高工艺的精美。玉璧直径达51.57cm，实属难得罕见，无论设计造型还是雕琢工艺都精美绝伦，加之整件美玉玻璃光辉耀炳现，堪称美玩。

中华民族爱玉敬玉崇玉的历史悠久，从上古先民直至近代，人们对玉均情有独钟，中国在各个时期都遗存有一批极富时代特征及历史研究价值的代表性器物，大体上有夏朝古陶器、商周青铜器、战汉漆器、隋唐金银器、宋明清瓷器，这些器物虽然在历史长河中各领风骚，却没有一种能像玉器那样经久不衰，长期受到民众如此的宠爱，这是世界上其他任何国家和地区所无法比拟的。
