About This Piece
An undecorated oval plaque is attached to a carved jade chain through an ornate upper fitting. The open chain links create a textured contrast with the smooth central face.
Carving details and what to examine
The carved chain should be examined link by link as well as together with the plaque. Close views of the link interiors and joining points help assess the finish; a photograph of the whole assembly is needed to understand how it hangs without putting strain on the connections.
