This ornament, dating from the Qing Dynasty, combines cloisonné enamel with jade carving. The axe blade is finely carved from white Hetian jade, featuring dragon and phoenix motifs symbolizing authority and auspiciousness. The jade is smooth and lustrous, enhancing its refined quality. The handle is decorated with cloisonné enamel on a blue ground, adorned with scrolling floral patterns in vibrant colors, creating a striking contrast with the jade blade. Gilt accents at the ends of the handle add elegance and grandeur. Blending jade artistry with the brilliance of cloisonné enamel, this piece is both a ceremonial symbol and a decorative treasure of significant artistic and collectible value.
