- Description:
It was originally a piece of “gold inlaid with the crown of the East Pearl Dynasty” collected in the Heart Cultivation Hall. The cloud pattern on the pedestal is coiled, and the golden dragon is sturdy and exquisite. The East Pearl inlaid is even and uniform, and its color is bright and clean. According to Volume IV of the “Imperial Ritual Ware Pattern”, the crown of the emperor in the winter and summer dynasties was “decorated with Zhu Wei, with the top three layers running through the East Pearl, each bearing four golden dragons, decorated with the East Pearl as many as they are, and named the Great Pearl”. It can be seen that it is the crown top shape used by the imperial court.
