A VERY RARE COUCHED GOLD AND EMBROIDERED GAUZE 'SHOU AND CHILONG' ROUNDEL

JIAQING PERIOD (1796-1820)

The roundel is finely embroidered with a couched gold shou character intertwined with two confronting chilong with bifurcated tails.

13 1/4 in. (33.6 cm.) diam.

The present roundel, featuring two entwined chilong, may have been intended to be worn by a prince who was second in line to the throne. As these ‘Grandson of the Emperor’ badges were thought to only have been produced in the latter part of the Qing dynasty, the present roundel may have been made for the Daoguang emperor. For an example of a robe with similarly rendered shou roundels featuring double chilong, possibly made for the consort of the prince second inline for the throne, see, D. Hugus, Chinese Rank Badges: Symbols of Power, Wealth, and Intellect in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Hong Kong, 2021, p. 123, fig. 13.19.
