Re: Jade chains |
Posted By: Ernest Wilhelm Posted Date: Dec 23, 2011 (12:19 AM) |
Message Indeed this is correct, vessel and lid being connected by a chain, never separated. If it was otherwise, then it would not be a masterpiece. Mind you, it took months to make some carving like that.On the other side, sometimes one can encounter a carving with chain, but poorly made, high speed, good for the tourist market.
