This estate coral yang dragon bracelet is crafted in 14k yellow gold, weighs exactly 46g and measures 6.5 inches around the wrist, 23mm wide and 19mm deep. This impressive and highly ornate coral yang dragon bangle bracelet depicts the head of a Chinese dragon, also referred to as the 'Oriental dragon', masterfully carved in 'mottled orange-white' coral, measuring 23mm wide, 18mm high and 23mm deep. This mythical Oriental creature has long been a symbol of auspicious power in Chinese folklore and art and unlike the Western image of the dragon, which is usually portrayed as evil, the Oriental dragon is seen as benevolent and kind. Through the mythical symbols of dragon, many Chinese see divine attributes which they aspire to themselves. The dragon is also the embodiment of the concept of 'yang' which controls the rain, rivers, lakes and sea and can ward off wandering evil spirits, hence bestowing safety onto all. It is no coincidence that the artist has chosen coral to depict the mythical figure on this alluring bracelet as modern gemstone therapists esteem the positive effects and invigorating force of coral. A pair of identical, diamond-studded scrolls one of which is positioned before the dragon’s open jaws embraces the elaborately detailed figure. Cumulatively bead-set with 0.60cts of full-cut diamonds graded I-J color and SI clarity range within yellow gold borders, these highly ornate scrolls adorn the triumvirate dual-hoop upper sides of the bangle bracelet. Embellished with relief-style chase work, the tapering triumvirates are adjoined to the lower half of the coral bangle bracelet by means of a meticulous hinge mechanism on one side while a concealed tongue and groove and a figure-eight safety latch on the other side secure this timelessly elegant custom made estate coral yang dragon bracelet of rare design and mythological inspiration.
