Ancient Metal Wine Cup

Creating the 3D model of a Wood Carving of a Dragon with a Scantech 3D Laser Scanner

In ancient China, the metal wine cup, also called “Jiu Zun,” served as a designated container for storing wine. The Scantech 3D scanner’s precision reveals the intricacies of this cultural relic, capturing the gracefully curved contours and ornate engravings that signify its role in rituals or celebrations.

Utilizing state-of-the-art 3D laser scanning and iReal 3D Mapping Software, the process meticulously captures the cup’s surface, allowing for the creation of a high-definition 3D color model that authentically replicates the delicate features and realistic roughness, breathing life into this historically significant artifact.

The resulting digital representation not only pays homage to the craftsmanship of ancient metallurgy but also becomes a digital portal. Enthusiasts, researchers, and cultural preservationists can explore and appreciate the wine cup’s historical and artistic dimensions.
