VTG CHINESE EXPORT VICTORIA IMARI STONE Hand-Knotted Sterling Silver NECKLACE
VTG CHINESE EXPORT VICTORIA STONE Hand-Knotted NECKLACE. Features Sterling Silver Box Clasp marked “Silver” Circa 1930. Imari Stone is a man made lapidary material that was manufactured in Japan. It is no longer being produced and the formula for it’s creation has been lost since the death of it’s creator. It is difficult to find. It is chatoyant with fan shaped swirls across the stone. It is a reconstructed stone with the hardness similar to nephrite jade. It is laboratory produced from natural minerals such as quartz, calcite, fluorspar, Magnesite, and feldspar, etc. This is not a synthetic or imitation but a reconstructed natural stone. And is becoming increasingly hard to find and in turn increasing it’s value.

Amazing & UNIQUE Antique Chinese Export Silver Hipflask & Cup, Canton, c1900. This is quite simply a wonderful piece of silver – I have not been able to find another piece of Chinese export silver quite like this! This incredible Hipflask is very much made in the English style with oval body, screw top and slide-off cup. It is however embossed fully in Chinese character scenes but for a vacant shield for initials to the front. It feels wonderful to handle with really crisp and sharp details to the decoration. Apart from a minute bruise to the cover it is in wonderful condition. A truly rare and spectacular piece and a must for collectors of Chinese export silver. Please see my other listings for recently added unique and interesting items.

Antique Chinese silver snuff box, inlaid, crane and deer
A scarce and unusual antique Chinese silver and hardstone inlaid snuff box or stash pot. It was probably a commissioned piece gifted to someone or made in celebration of an event such as securing a good job etc. Chinese men often hid them in the sleeves of their Changpao. The lid is very well decorated with inlaid translucent hardstone with a deer and a crane by a river underneath a phoenix tree. There are a number of possible meanings that could be taken from the combination of images according to Chinese lore. Longevity, the six harmonies and togetherness are a few. The box is hallmarked on the underside with a Chinese hallmark and an image of golden horse, this is the mark of the Beijing retail and manufacturing silversmith Bao Hua Lou, previously just Bao Hua, late 19th century / early 20th century mark, information on the mark, maker and the symbolism very kindly provided by the world renowned Mr A V Ferscht, if you have not seen his comprehensive website or read his book then I highly recommend it. It is a very attractive and unique piece of Chinese silver. Good condition overall with some signs of use and wear commensurate with age, there is a small ding to the lid so it doesn’t quite close flush, see photos. Approx 1″ height, 1.25″ diameter and weighs approx 23.34 grams.
