Qing Dynasty Kingfisher feather Hair Pin Chinese Coral Antique Tian-tsui 點翠 珊瑚

Description: Description This is a hair pin made from laying kingfisher bird feathers on silver metal. The technique and the beautiful blue fluorescent feathers were highly prized and sought after in 19th century China. Kingfishers are tiny birds and it takes a lot of skill to use their feathers in this manner. The technique, called tian-tsui, means “dotting with kingfishers” and involves adhering the feathers onto metal. This technique disappeared during the Chinese Revolution in the 1940′s. It's a fabulous piece of history. Head size: 2 1/4" wide x 1" long, 1 3/4" long with pin Add me to favorites Payment Payment is due within 5 days of your purchase.
