DESCRIPTION: A Chinese pendant with coral colored stone mounted as a brooch in high relief with a scholar standing under a twisting pine in a mountain setting.  The rectangular gilt frame is cast as four bamboo stalks and has a sturdy open “mesh” backing fitted with a stick pin and gold loop so that it can be worn as a brooch or necklace.  Very fine work overall with no tarnish anywhere to the gilt frame.  DIMENSIONS: 2 3/8” long (6 cm) x 1 7/8” wide (4.8 cm).  <div id='rater_target1149763'></div>
