Seller: southpawpeke ✉️ (543) 100%, Location: Marstons Mills, Massachusetts, US, Ships to: WORLDWIDE, Item: 151634866472 Important rare and unusual Chinese white jade sword guard w/ celadon jade handle. This is the first time I've seen something like this in my entire career of collecting. This is ancient. It comprises a white jade Han dynasty sword guard, carved with a fierce dragon on one side and "C" scrolls on the other. A celadon jade handle, probably around the same period, well carved with dragons and clouds amongst other patterns throughout. Jades used for weapons that are well carved like this one are seldom seen. They are usually important and most likely made for generals. Total length is 9.6" (24.3 cm). Width of the sword guard is 2.5" (6.35 cm). The thickness of the sword guard and the handle is about the same (0.88", 2.2 cm). Other than slight wear, it is in very good condition with natural fissures and inclusions. I truly believe this is one of the important pieces as far as history, culture, and the way they made weapons at the time is concerned. The cord was attached later. Serious bidders only please. Thank you for your interest and feel free to view my other auctions.
