A nephrite peace buckle pendant in 24K antique gold, its openwork center carved with cloud scrollwork, strung on a brown cord with a red and gold enamel bead.
Material: Nephrite with 24K Antique Gold
Gross Weight: 10.17g
Craft: Carved openwork nephrite disc, antique gold relief border and center medallion
Cord: Brown braided cord with a red and gold enamel bead, tied at the pendant's bail
The disc keeps its round outline plain, letting the carved gold ring at center carry all the detail. Cloud scrollwork winds through the open circle in fine relief, a motif tied to good fortune and protection, rendered with the worn, matte finish that marks the antique gold technique rather than a high polish.
Part of Nephrite Collection
A quiet form, its meaning carried in the carving rather than the shine.
