This little book is actually a ceramic flask; you can see on the strap that’s “holding it shut” that there’s a lid for the spigot, attached to a chain. They’re not sure if it was a flask for drinking from or a ceramic handwarmer that you would fill with hot liquid, but either way, how delightful.
[ID: A ceramic sculpture in the shape of an extremely thick book; it has gold edging on the cover, and on the “front” of the book there’s a blue rectangular pattern. It is held shut by a strap that has a large knob on it, attached by a chain, which would screw off to reveal an empty center.]

Flask (bianhu)
China, Eastern Zhou dynasty, Warring States period (475–221 B.C.)
This canteen-shaped container was probably modeled after leather flasks designed to be slung from the shoulder by cords. The bricklike pattern of inlaid copper may allude to this cord wrapping. A stamp carved with a pattern of feather-curls was repeatedly impressed into the clay mold to create this intricate surface decoration.
