这款精美的新中式手镯引入广为人知的松鹤题材。镯面正中镶嵌有一片3.5cm x 1.8cm镂空雕刻的松鹤翡翠花片,颜色翠绿,油润通透。花片上一只仙鹤独脚昂首而立,另一只展翅欲飞。背景则是坚挺的松树和岩石。镯面整体部分则用18K金打制,呼应翡翠花片上的图案,精雕细琢成蜿蜒舒展的松枝和松叶。松枝部分被细致的处理成黑金色,凸显出松树的坚韧与古朴。左右侧镯面各镶有一只展翅飞翔的仙鹤。仙鹤的身体部分则用18K白金完成,生动且高洁。整体画面中错落点缀着8粒大小不一的珍珠及9粒蛋面翡翠,翡翠花片两侧各有一粒红宝石,让手镯色彩更加协调、丰富。
松鹤主题一直因其吉祥的寓意在中式审美中屹立不衰。松,有着“百木之长”的美誉。它傲霜斗雪、卓然不群,最早见于《诗经·小雅·斯干》,因其树龄长久,经冬不凋,松被用来祝寿考、喻长生:“秩秩斯干,幽幽南山。如竹苞矣,如松茂矣。” 。松树,是高洁情志的代表,是名士高情远致的象征。同时它也是真情的象征。因其坚韧顽强,往往象征着忠贞的友谊与爱情。鹤,最早是被道教引入,视作神鸟,也因此被称为“仙鹤”。《诗经》有云:“鹤鸣于九霄,声闻于天。”说的就是它能翱翔于高空,其鸣叫声高亢响亮回旋于九天之上。
This exquisite New Chinese Style bangle reinterprets the timeless motif of “Pine and Crane,” a cornerstone of Eastern aesthetic tradition. At its heart lies a meticulously hand-carved, openwork jadeite plaque (3.5cm x 1.8cm). The jadeite exhibits a vibrant green hue with an oily, translucent luster. On the plaque, one crane stands poised on a single leg with its head held high, while another spreads its wings as if ready to take flight, set against a backdrop of resilient pine trees and rugged rocks.
The 18K gold frame of the bangle is masterfully sculpted to echo the floral theme, with intertwining pine branches and delicate needles stretching gracefully around the wrist. The branches are finished in a refined “black gold” treatment, accentuating the tenacity and ancient soul of the pine. Flanking the central plaque are two flying cranes crafted in 18K white gold, symbolizing purity and nobility. The entire composition is accented by eight pearls of varying sizes and nine green jadeite cabochons, with a ruby set on either side of the plaque to create a harmonious and opulent palette.
The theme of “Pine and Crane” has endured in Chinese aesthetics for its profound auspicious meaning. The Pine, lauded as the “leader of all trees,” is celebrated in the Classic of Poetry (Shijing) for its evergreen nature and ability to withstand the harshest winters, serving as a powerful metaphor for longevity and enduring vitality. It represents the high-minded integrity of a scholar and the unwavering loyalty of friendship and love. The Crane, often referred to as the “Celestial Crane,” is revered as a divine bird. As the Classic of Poetry states: “The crane cries in the ninth heaven, and its voice is heard in the skies,” symbolizing its ability to soar into the divine realms and its far-reaching influence.
