Chapter 746: Zhang Nan is not the most spoiled child!
It was a set of jewelry, most of which were set with precious stones: two bracelets of different styles, a 20-centimeter-long charm of the same type as the one on the chest of Princess Sissi's dress, a flat brooch, a gold bracelet, a gold necklace and a pair of gold earrings.
Craftsmanship, or that kind of staggering craftsmanship!
The bracelet is divided into seven sections, each of which is a horizontal oval, all hollowed out and carved with a character story, similar to the yellow gold-encrusted tortoiseshell bracelet that was obtained last year.
However, the stories of the characters on the bracelet I got last time are all Chinese, and the characters on this gold bracelet do not look Chinese, and the theme of the story and the carving technique are not traditional Chinese skills, but they are almost the same fine.
The bracelet is still hollow carved on both sides, because the overall look is relatively wide, I don't know whether the original owner is a man or a woman, and you can wear it when you look at it.
The brooch was flat and oval, about seven centimeters in diameter on the long side, and was decorated with a circle of papillae-like dense gold beads at intervals with smooth gold beads, and three bud-shaped wind chimes fell.
What flowers?
I don't know.
As for the necklace, it looks more "cheesy", with a width of 4 cm and a length of about 60 cm, which is completely connected by large and small, round and oval gold beads, and constitutes several large pieces of different geometric patterns according to the size and density of the gold beads - people with dense phobia had better not look at it, because it is impossible to count how many gold beads there are on it!
The charm on the chest is divided into 5 layers, each layer is inlaid with "gold grid" with red envelopes and emeralds into geometric figures and floral patterns that are set inside and outside.
The most beautiful is one of the bracelets: a "jewel flower" made of hard gold and bone, with five gem-encrusted flowers. In the middle is a round ruby about 6 mm in diameter, surrounded by diamonds and a third by a smaller ruby.
The beads are four small and one large, and the "four small" is an emerald in the middle, surrounded by seven rubies in the outer ring.
The periphery between the large bead flower in the middle and the two small bead flowers on both sides is surrounded by a circle of round pearls of different diameters, and the sea beads fill the gap in the geometric figure. Between the two pearls at the widest point, there is also a black gem separated by a gold checkered strip, and Zhang Nan is not sure of the material of the black gem.
The other bracelet is white jade in the middle, but the whole body is wrapped in hollow gold, the shape is a dragon, the dragon body is also inlaid with small red and green gemstones, and the eyes are two small rubies.
White jade, it seems to be Hetian jade, but it is not 100% sure - this thing is not only used in China, this dragon is also different from the traditional Chinese dragon, with a bit of Southeast Asian style.
The pair of earrings are made of gold filigree and gold beads, and the pattern and structure are reminiscent of the Arab Empire thousands of years ago.
After checking this, Zhang Nan said: "It should be something from Is-Lan, but it is not from the ancient Islamic period, it is much later."
The Arabs themselves were in shambles in their early days, but after the occupation of West Asia, North Africa, and southern Spain, a large number of skilled craftsmen returned to the Arabs, and later influenced the subcontinent, with a touch of Indian and Persian craftsmanship.
These are probably products from the Malay region two or three hundred years ago, when some of the Sultans there had the financial resources and good enough Indian and Chinese craftsmen to make jewelry of this standard. ”
At this point, Zhang Nan divided the necklace, bracelet, brooch, and earrings into a pile, and put two bracelets, chest ornaments and the indescribable "scepter" together, "This should be two pieces of jewelry, not a series." ”
......
There is such a harvest in one box, and there is more hope for dozens of other boxes.
Open again!
Thomas Jacob tried to move a large rectangular box more than a meter long, but as soon as he got started, he said, "It's heavy, it should be 300 pounds!"
It's good, there's hope!
The 300-pound thing Jacob could hold up, but the problem was that the box was not easy to handle, so he didn't do it, and Mark hurriedly went up to help.
The two brothers carried the large box to a spacious place and pried it open with a crowbar, still with a lot of fabric in it.
After the mess of padding was removed, a bunch of big men couldn't figure out the situation - "What the hell is this?"
Especially Mark and Jacob, who couldn't understand it for several seconds, and Boss Guan was about the same, but the others quickly had a guess.
The thing was lifted out, Zhang Nan looked up and down for a while, and then said: "This is a baby bed,! Pure gold diamond ruby baby bed!"
For the boss's words, others agreed.
"The Chinese emperor has never played such a local tyrant, what kind of immortal is this?"
It was Guan Xingquan who spoke: I felt that what I was looking for was a crib, or the kind of high-end goods with a cradle function.
There are two "golden wheels" at the two ends, with a gold plate about 60 centimeters wide and 110 centimeters long in the middle, and stiffeners at the bottom, and a row of gold pillars about 20 centimeters high on both sides.
There is also a round gold ball on each of the two "wheels", and a golden pole the thickness of an egg and more than a meter long is attached between them.
The "golden wheels" are each connected with a plate-like crescent-shaped gold base, which makes the baby look a little wobbly - with a little force to push horizontally, this unbelievable crib becomes a cradle.
However, this crib is so heavy that if it is not on a very slippery floor, it will take some effort to shake it!
There are also two small hidden notches at the bottom of the base, which seem to be stuffed into something - Zhang Nan feels that as long as he stuffs two small wooden plugs into it, the bed will become flat.
As for the decoration... Even the gold bed is carved in bas-relief, with intricate decorations that repeat geometric animal and plant motifs on the entire side, which is typical of Islamic decoration.
The "axle" is set into concentric circles with more than a dozen dense circles of rubies and diamonds, and in the middle is a diamond the size of the first little finger!
The outer sides of the 20 gold axles are all set with ruby strips the size of peanut kernels, and the outer outline is 20 "jewel flowers" facing the axles, which are inlaid with red and green gemstones.
The gold base is set with rubies, diamonds and emeralds to form interlocking geometric figures, but there is not a single gemstone on the "tread" about five or six widths and the gold rungs on the top, all of which are welded and carved into gold flowers and geometric ornaments, as well as animal shapes.
A group of people gathered around to see the strangeness, and various comments focused on issues such as "this king is definitely a nouveau riche", Zhang Nan felt the same way - why didn't he think of such a spoiled child?
It seems a little inferior to the father who made this bed!
