Antique Chinese Necklace Silver Jade Carved Gems Dragon Court Prayer 36105gr
I believe its Chinese in origin and here’s why. The heavy tea pot type hangers, the dragon head on one of the claws, the high quality jade Bi that’s lotus flower set… For these reasons I think its Chinese. The lady I bought this from inherited it years ago. Her mother was a world traveler & expert collector of fine tribal and cultural jewelry. I think this is the best piece yet. Measuring from the end of the chain to where the largest amulet joins is 18 inches. (36total length apx) The large amulet and the 3 dangles would add another 2.5-3 inches. The diameter of the jade donut (bi) is apx 5/8ths inch. It spins freely in a lotus decorated bezel. The large amulet has a center collar so it can move freely too. I think all the beads are stone. Carnelian turquoise and coral? The largest claw is apx 3″ + 2″of dangle chain. The smaller about 2.5. The decoration on the smaller ones bezel has a dragon head. I’ not sure what the other is meant to represent. In the last 2 pictures you will see my test stone results and the only possible repair. I tested the hand made chain on left spot, the tip of a teapot, and the tip of a claw bezel. All three places show high content silver results. The last picture shows where I believe a “collar” was added to firm up the joint between the 2 bulbous beads of a teapot. The section that is made up of the 3 teapots and the dangles is sewn on with silk. Same with the 4 inches of work just below the claws and the teapot section. Maybe this necklace was to be worn on special events? I’m convinced its quite special. It weighs 105 grams. Please check out my other items. Thank you and Good luck!
