铜质镜架,主体铸雕犀牛四肢伏于身下,牛尾甩向股侧,回首伸鼻,独角韧劲,双耳精巧,面目清晰生动,气宇轩昂,神态盎然。瑞牛口吐祥云,缓缓而出,飘绕至背部,拱托起半圆形镜托,拟比满月,呈“吴牛喘月”之势。整器皮壳古润,时代特征鲜明,且题材新颖,意境优美,构思巧妙,充满浪漫主义色彩,实为一件不可多得的文房陈设精品。 “吴牛喘月”,成语出自南朝•宋•刘义庆《世说新语•言语》:“满奋畏风,在晋武帝坐;北窗作琉璃屏,实密似疏,奋有难色。帝笑之,奋答曰:﹁臣犹吴牛见月而喘。﹂”吴牛指产于江淮间的水牛。吴牛指江淮一带的水牛,吴地天气多炎暑,水牛怕热,见到月亮以为是太阳,故卧地望月而喘。比喻因疑心而害怕,也比喻人遇事过分惧怕,而失去了判断的能力,也形容天气十分酷热。古人常将成语化为图纹刻在器皿上以起到警示的作用。
