Lot 1148
Unbelievable Jumbo Lot of Jade Hair Pins. Corner the market on this lady's accessory! Pins generally curved, sometimes with rounded or pointed ends. Some more elaborate. Some in delicate openwork traceries, with others with carved disc tops and very archaic-looking. Mostly in celedons and greens, and a few brightly colored mottled green jadeites, and other colors. One mounted on carved wood base, with lable stating it to be Ching Dynasty. Some pieces look to be vintage or antique; a few are in silver. Lengths: 14 - 31 mm. Quality old dealer stock, purchased in the 1960's through 1980's. Nearly 150 pieces.
Estimated Value $700 - 900.
