All photos on this site are of my Palace Lamp. Which has the same design and size ( 45 cm high, 33 cm wide, 33 cm depth) as the gilded Bronze human shaped lamp of the Western Han Dinasty, at Hebei Provincial Museum. Unearth in Mancheng county, Hebei Province in 1968.  The lamp is one of the most treasure pieces in the collection of Hebei Provincial Museum, and was on display at the Hebei Pavilion of Shanghai world Expo 2010.  The lamp is on the list of Chinese cultural relics forbidden to be exhibited abroad.  The only existing or fragile relics among the grade-one-relics are prohibited from being taken out of the Country for exhibition.  See links below.
