Perfect folklore ornament

I bought this to hang in my study as a conversation starter. It has such a unique character and the verification certificate gave me peace of mind regarding its age.

Stunning piece of history

The craftsmanship on this tiger head bell is incredible. You can really see the age in the patina, and it feels substantial in the hand. A beautiful addition to my collection of Qing artifacts.

Great detail, slightly smaller than expected

The detailing on the tiger's face is exquisite. I was hoping for something slightly larger based on the photos, but the quality makes up for the size. The bell still rings softly.

Beautiful but delicate

The pendant is gorgeous and exactly as described. Just be careful when handling it as the loop looks a bit thin due to age. I mounted it immediately to keep it safe.

Authentic and well-preserved

As a collector of Asian antiquities, I am very pleased with this purchase. The oxidation is consistent with genuine aged brass, and the structural integrity is excellent.

5 FAQ

Q: Can this be worn as a necklace?

A: While it has an integrated loop, we recommend displaying it as an ornament or attaching it to a sturdy chain with care, as the metal is antique and may be brittle.

Q: Does this come with a certificate of authenticity?

A: Yes, every item is shipped with a detailed provenance document and a third-party verification card confirming its Qing Dynasty origin.

Q: How should I clean the verdigris on the surface?

A: We strongly advise against cleaning the patina or verdigris, as these natural oxidation layers contribute to the item's value and historical authenticity. Dust gently with a soft brush only.

Q: Is the bell functional or is it sealed shut?

A: The bell is functional and produces a soft, muted chime typical of aged metal. It is not sealed, though the sound is quieter than a new reproduction.

Q: What is the specific era within the Qing Dynasty?

A: Based on the stylistic features of the tiger engraving and the alloy composition, our appraisers date this piece to the late Qing period, approximately 1870-1900.
