This is an original late 19th Century Ching Period Han Chinese Gilt Silver Repousse Pendant in excellent condition. This flat rectangular pendant has particularly elaborate detail & well as a nice flowered intermediary connector clasp. This pendant was purchased by my father in 1980 while he was in Hong Kong for his semi-annual buying trip for his antique shop. This is a well documented antique collecting category - please refer to reference books that outline the richness of this type of Chinese silver artisanship. I particularly enjoy a book by Margaret Duda that can be purchased online.
Pendant Dimensions: 1 3/4 inch wide by 1 3/8 inch long. Length of Pendant with Chain Loop & Coral Adornment: 3 5/8 inches.
Weight: .6 ounces (18 grams)
