Length: Approximately 17.0cm Weight: Approximately 44.9g Markings: silver This is a silver accessory made in China for export. While the exact era is uncertain, it is at least 50 years old. The intricate silver filigree work is exquisite, leaving me breathless. The rough-cut turquoise also provides a nice accent. It is large overall and has a strong presence. To preserve the beauty of the antique silver, I lightly polished it, but some black areas remain. The design is also elaborate, with the character for "longevity" (寿) expressed in silver wire, which is a testament to the craftsmanship.
