木描金堆漆經函

浙江省瑞安市仙岩寺慧光塔出土

一九六六年浙江省瑞安市仙岩寺慧光塔出土。經函檀木質,分外函和內函,內藏經文一卷。外函呈長方體,長40公分,寬18公分,高16.5公分,盝頂,通體髹棕色漆。由基座與蓋兩部分組成,基座略大於蓋壁。基座飾有堆漆神獸和花卉。蓋頂部及四壁開光,用漆堆塑佛像、供養菩薩、神獸、飛鳥、花卉等。外函棕色漆地上用描金繪飛天、樂器、祥鳥和花卉。
 內函形式與外函雷同,長33.8公分,寬11公分,高11.5公分。函四壁及頂部以忍冬、菊花及菱形網格為地紋,金粉調膠描繪團花、如意及瑞獸等圖紋,筆法工整,與一般描金技法略有不同。
 此經函圖案布局嚴謹精緻,堆漆工藝高超,描金運筆自如,確屬宋代(960~1279)漆器中的精品。據「建塔助緣施主姓名」載,此函為浙江永嘉嚴士元所捨。函底有金書一行,已模糊不清,僅「大宋慶曆二年(1042)」等字依稀可辨。
