Antique Amuletic Dozen RockCrystals CagedRing Medieval Style Gilt Bronze Pendant
Located in Chicago, IL
This antique amuletic bronze framed pendant cages a dozen 7mm-diameter single-cut rock crystals that each feature a table-cut decagon crown, deep pavilion, 21 facets and uncut girdle, while the culets range from off-center to blunted. They are tightly set within four linked rings to overlap at the same angle in a sparkling single row. Seeming to retain a little of its original yellow-gold gilding on just the interior, the frame that surrounds each of the four sections of three crystals enables them to reflect pale-yellow-and-lime light when the pendant is viewed from certain angles.
Suggesting French heritage, the Medieval Frankish culture in northern France made jewelry in similar segmented or openwork shapes of wheels or whorls, which were worn as gem-decorated disk-shaped brooches or gold-caged rock...

Zhou Dynasty Ancient China Bird Motif Ancient Chinese Bone Hair Pin
Located in PUTNEY, NSW
This extraordinary Zhou Dynasty hair pin, delicately carved from bone, is a captivating artifact that reflects the sophistication and artistry of ancient China. Adorned with a bird motif, this hair pin offers a glimpse into the symbolic significance birds held during the Zhou period, representing freedom, elegance, and spiritual connection to the heavens.
The bird design is intricately detailed, with gracefully elongated wings and flowing lines that convey movement and life. Hand-carved from bone, the material gives the pin an organic, earthy texture that enhances its antiquity and authenticity. Hairpins like this one were often used not just as functional tools but as symbols of status and beauty among the elite.
The Zhou Dynasty (1046–256 BCE) was known for its refined craftsmanship and spiritual symbolism, and this pin is an exquisite representation of that era's cultural depth. Ideal for collectors of ancient artifacts or anyone with an appreciation for Chinese history, this piece embodies both elegance and timeless beauty.
