A large framed Chinese silk court robe sleeve, probably 18th Century, beautifully embroidered with a repeating pattern of flying cranes, clouds and flowers in green, white, gold, orange, blue and yellow on a green silk ground.

The sleeve sewn in panels and with two orange silk squares with complimentary embroidered motifs.

The colours still vibrant and the silk in excellent condition, protected in a later glazed gilt frame – please note the fabric has not been examined out of frame.

Cranes are considered in Chinese culture one of the most auspicious of birds second only to the phoenix. They represent longevity, happiness and marriage.

Dimensions of the frame are:

34.5 inches high and 15.5 inches wide.

For metric please multiply by 2.5
I describe and photograph my pieces accurately and with the aim that on arrival each will exceed expectations.

I operate a full refund guarantee and am always happy to give free, honest and friendly advice.
