Description

ANTIQUE CHINESE CARVED JADE BELT BUCKLE - SONG DYNASTY

antique Chinese carved jade plaque set in a metal mounting (probably a bronze, silver, gold combination) to form a belt buckle.

This jade tomb piece circa 14th century dates to the Sung Dynasty. It features a somewhat crudely carved floral motif.

The piece measures approximately 3 1/2 inches by 2 3/4 inches and is about 1/2 inch thick. The metal is deocrated as well and the 'belt loop' is about1 3/4 inches wide.

I do have many other Chinese and Japanese items for sale: vintage, antique and ancient - including many other snuff bottles. I am selling these for an elderly Chinese gentleman who was a renown collector and purveyer of Chinese works for many years in New York City and has recently retired. The pieces are all guaranteed as described (and in some cases where provenance was unclear, we erred on the side of caution.)
