摘要
夏商西周时期是中国玉器发展的成长阶段，随着各地之间的文化交流不断加强，玉器风格也趋于一致并不断创新。制玉工艺技术的进步大大提高了玉器制品的数量与质量，对后世影响深远的玉器礼制也完备于这一时期。
柄形玉器是三代玉制品中出土数量最多的器形之一，大多呈扁平长条形，下端多有短而薄的榫，有的榫上有孔，由于用途不清楚，过去有人称之为“琴拨”、玉拨子。后来以其形似器柄而得名。实际上有的柄形玉器并不像器柄，但因为它们的形制相似，所以也归入柄形玉器。
The handle-shaped jades constitute one of the largest groups among the jade and other precious stone artifacts unearthed from vestiges of the Three Dynasties period. They look like a flat, narrow rectangle with a thin, short, sometimes perforated tenon at the lower end. As their use is not clear, they are named after the handle-like form, though some pieces are not in the shape of a handle and their assignment to this category is conventional. Recently this class of article has been unearthed in a great quantity through archaeological work, which allow the author to make a typological research on these objects and to discuss their evolution, distribution, function, using way, making technique and origin on the basis of sorting out the relevant archaeological data already published.
