About the Item
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.

Antique 15k Yellow Gold Longuard Chain Circa 1900
Located in Jesmond, Newcastle Upon Tyne
An exceptional, fine and impressive, antique 15 karat yellow gold longuard chain; part of our diverse antique gold watch chains collection.
This exceptional, fine and impressive antique watch chain has been crafted in 15k yellow gold.
The antique longuard chain consists of forty-one long twisting fancy links alternating with an array of four lobed interlocking paired links; these are finely cast, desirable links.
The decorative chain incorporates a swivel clasp, hallmarked with the maker's mark (WHW LD) and the 15k gold mark (15CT).
This exceptional and tactile chain has been independently tested using state of the art technology (Niton XL2 Analyzer) and verified as 15 karat gold.
By virtue of its length, this antique chain may be worn as a two strand or three strand necklace, either with or without a pendant via the plain swivel clasp; alternatively the chain may be wrapped multiple times around the wrist to be worn as a bracelet.
This longuard chain is a superior example of its type.
