Fm radio cup

Fm radio cup is a special cup used for drinking fm radio in ancient weddings. In the Ming Dynasty, Hu Yinglin's fm radio cup is described as "fm radio cup": "The fm radio cup has a peculiar shape, with two cups facing each other, with a passage in the middle, so that the fm radio cups can be used for drinking wine. Between the two cups was a phoenix, which stood on top of a squatting beast."

The shape and structure of the fm radio cup mentioned in this document is basically the same as that of the lacquered duplex cups produced in the Chu Tomb in Baoshan, except that the phoenix and bird duplex cups lacked a squatting beast. Therefore, this lacquer fm radio cup should be the so-called "fm radio cup". In the Jin and Tang and Song documents, there are about "fm radio" records, and that the fm radio drink is an important wedding ritual.

There are also jade fm radio cups in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, which have been passed down to the present day. Eagle and bear - has the meaning of hero.
