Vintage Dragon Bracelet reverse carved chinese bangle cuff Asian oriental

Unavailable

Vintage Dragon Bracelet reverse carved chinese bangle cuff Asian oriental. I have never seen so much work in one bracelet at this one. Truly a lost art, this one is all hand carved and it is done in such a way that the dragon almost looks like it is inlaid. From what I understand, A horn is cut and with intricate and delicate work, tiny and paper thin layers are carved to create the creature and to give it the proper coloring to create the depth. This looks totally dimensional and the photos don't even come close to how beautiful this work of art is. I can't even imagine the master who carved this. He must have been an extraordinary artist. The bracelet measures 6 1/4' long with an additional gap of 7/8". It is almost 1"wide and in great shape.
