直径21.1cm;厚0.7cm
重620g尺寸硕大精美三弦钮,圆钮座,座外一周宽弦纹带。细密的羽状地纹,主题纹饰为四蜼首尾相连,两雌两雄,形象十分俏皮灵动。四兽长吻,圆睛,仰视上方,双耳或双歧或后抿,右前爪抓住前一只尾部,左前肢伸至镜缘内侧,左后肢踏于钮座外侧,右后肢与长尾相触。《中国汉语大词典》中解释:“‘蜼’,一种体形较大的长尾猴,黄黑色,尾长数尺。”有成语“猿蜼昼吟。”《山海经》中记载了一种名叫蜼〔wèi音未〕的动物。《中山经》鬲山、《海外南经》狄山、《海内西经》昆仑山都有蜼的身影。郭璞注曰:“蜼似猕猴,鼻露上向,尾四五尺,头有歧,苍黄色。雨则自悬树,以尾塞鼻孔,或以两指塞之。”蜼在铜镜上的出现有其必然性,因为古人赋予了它表达美好愿望的意涵:“祈雨”,由此进一步引申出‘蜼’表征着智慧,这在“国之大事,在戎在祀”的崇尚祭祀的社会里具有深刻的影响和社会现实意义。所以它是当时华夏民族看重的神圣崇拜物,甚至是当时或过去的图腾物,足见人们关于蜼的观念和对蜼的重视。惜裂
