China has always fascinated Europe with its millennia-old culture. It is impossible to imagine European art of the last centuries without chinoiseries, Chinese arts and crafts, especially porcelain, was a status symbol at all European courts and a sign of discriminating taste. Then, at the beginning of the 20th century, when long-distance travel became easier, trade relations could be expanded and thus the Middle Kingdom moved closer, genuine Chinese arts and crafts also became affordable for the middle classes. The beautiful bracelet presented here was created in the middle of the 20th century. At that time, the Chinese government commissioned the production of high quality handicrafts for export, in order to provide the young state with foreign currency for reconstruction after the long years of civil war. The links of the bracelet are set with five cabochons of leek green agate, which frame a fine mesh of silver wire. In ancient China, the green color of stones signified life and vitality. Created in the years around 1970, the bracelet is beautifully preserved and an unusual piece of jewelry from the Far East!
