RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Embellished with the characters Dragon, Phoenix and Present, Auspiciousness at both ends of the Ruyi pattern, these elements together convey the Chinese phrase Dragon and Phoenix present auspiciousness. This phrase symbolizes the harmonious balance of Yin and Yang, embodying the essence of heaven and earth. The dragon and phoenix are revered as the highest symbols of good fortune, harmony, and prosperity.
CHALLENGE: The openwork carving on the 18K gold base demands exceptional skill to ensure consistency of patterns and prevents distortion of the thin gold layer. The micro-carving of the Dragon and Phoenix present auspiciousness seal script in the Ruyi pattern groove is performed with a specialized 0.3mm carving knife under a magnifying glass. Each part undergoes dozens of procedures and meticulous inspections to achieve a delicate balance between artistry and functionality.
