清晚期 銀嵌白玉鏤雕鳳穿牡丹紋珮項鏈
the larger pendant composed of two white jade plaques, each reticulated with a feathered phoenix craned towards its tail feathers into an irregular seed-pod form. The two plaques mounted in brass between a lattice network of twisted wires joined by a hinge and a kiss clasp. Strung on a chain or hammered almond-form links with spinach jade beads, and further suspending a pair of white jade 'lotus' pendants on either side of a softly polished white jade teardrop-form example.
