A large and finely embroidered silk panel featuring nine imperial dragons (jiu long) chasing a flaming pearl, executed in metallic gold thread on a pale silk ground. The central dragon dominates the composition, surrounded by eight supporting dragons amidst clouds and stylized waves, symbolizing power, imperial authority, and auspicious energy. The dragons are rendered with lively movement and dynamic curves, outlined with precision in varying densities of gold thread. This type of composition and craftsmanship reflects Qing Dynasty imperial style, and such panels were often displayed in palaces, temples, or elite households. Professionally mounted and framed, this piece is suitable for interior display or serious textile collection.
