This stunning vintage bracelet features nine pierced discs of jade, a traditional Chinese motif known as pi or bi (璧). The jade, when carved in this way, was meant to represent heaven and ancient emperors spoke to the gods through the hole. Completed with elegant gold bezels and sleek, linear ribbed links between each disc, this bracelet really is divine.

Very good vintage condition with moderate wear; gold links recently restored. c1980.
