Antique Chinese Qing Dynasty 1736-1795 Blue Silk Ground Kesi Dragon Robe Jifu
The colors on this robe are still bright and beautiful. There are some worn spots and loose threads but the integrity of this robe is very good. Blue was the Qing dynasty’s official color and was worn by minor princes or noblemen. This robe has nine (9) dragons. Medium- ranking officials wore robes with eight (8) four-clawed dragons, but at court, high-ranking officials’ robes featured a ninth (9) dragon, hidden inside a front flap. I was given this robe about 50 years ago by the lady that was the director of the “Feast of Lanterns” in Pacific Grove, Calif. It has wonderful memories but just sits in a box. It is time for this piece of history to move on. The item “Antique Chinese Qing Dynasty 1736-1795 Blue Silk Ground Kesi Dragon Robe Jifu” is in sale since Wednesday, April 05, 2017.
