Golden fringes. - Nobel property South Germany, inheritance of Wolf Albrecht Friedrich von Eichhorn (1883-1969), Lieutenant Commander of the Imperial German Naval Officer Corps 1914/18 - Barely visible chips of the enamel, minor signs of wear, otherwise in good conditionThe Order of the Double Dragon was mainly awarded to foreign princes, governors, generals and other high officials, naval officers and others in the late Qing Dynasty. The order (1st model) had five classes, of which the first three were each divided into three grades. A number of changes were made to the early Chinese variants due to criticism in the West that they were only worn around the neck and without a breast star. After the breast stars were introduced in 1894, their silver stars were often ordered and made in Europe (e.g. Halley, Wolfers, Godet, Treiden) and then decorated with a smaller Chinese order (2nd model). In all classes together, less than 1000 orders of the 1st model up to 1894 and the 2nd model up to 1900 should have been awarded. Because of their rarity and excellent work, these early variants are coveted by collectors.
