Vintage Carved Chinese Ivory Emperor 14kt Gold Chain
About the Item
This exquisite Vintage Chinese Ivory Pendant, masterfully carved in the likeness of an emperor, is a striking representation of traditional Chinese artistry and regal symbolism. The figure is delicately detailed, from the serene expression and flowing robes to the intricate headdress, capturing the dignity and spiritual presence of imperial portraiture. The ivory has aged beautifully, developing a warm, creamy patina that highlights the fine craftsmanship and depth of carving.
Suspended from a solid 14kt gold chain, the pendant is elevated from a simple work of art to a refined piece of wearable heritage. The gold offers a rich contrast to the organic ivory tones, adding both luxury and strength to the overall design. Likely created in the mid-20th century, this piece speaks to a time when traditional hand-carving met modern jewelry design, creating a unique fusion of culture and elegance.
This necklace is ideal for collectors of Asian antiques, vintage fine jewelry, or anyone who appreciates symbolic and meticulously crafted adornments. A rare find, it serves as both a statement of style and a tribute to history, legacy, and the enduring beauty of skilled artisan work.

Vintage Damascene Oval Necklace
Located in Lake Worth Beach, FL
This Vintage Damascene Oval Necklace is a beautiful and unique piece of jewelry that showcases the intricate artistry of Damascene metalwork. This type of necklace features an oval-shaped pendant or design, crafted using the classic Damascene technique, which involves inlaying precious metals such as gold, silver, or copper into a darker base metal, typically steel or brass.
The necklace features an oval-shaped pendant, which is often the centerpiece of the piece. The oval shape can be flat or slightly raised, and the design within the oval is typically framed by a delicate metal border.
Damascene refers to the technique of inlaying gold or silver into a dark base metal, usually steel or brass. This process creates intricate, fine patterns, such as floral motifs, geometric designs, or scrollwork.
The contrast between the dark metal and the shiny, inlaid gold or silver gives the necklace a luxurious, vintage appeal.
