A very rare Chinese Carved Ivory Bracelet, brooch or pin, pair of earrings and ring. All items are carved with red and green color of what appears to be male figures in various poses in the ivory. Sterling silver with very intricate back weave and fine filigree work on all the pieces. This set was appraised for $900. Here are the appraisers comments: "Suggested dating is Early Republic (Republic of China 1911-1949). These sets were produced with carved cinnabar lacquer, jade (both jadeite and nephrite, ivory (plain and painted), turquoise, malachite, coral, etc. You are fortunate to have the entire set !" This is some of the most detailed filigree I have ever viewed. The box is silk embroidery on the top and is slightly worn, but still very serviceable. Bracelet measures 1 1/2" x 7". Brooch 1 1/2" x 1 1/4". Earrings 5/8" x 3/4". Ring 3/4" x 7/8".
