Important 1920s Glass-Type Floating Flower Jadeite Bangles 段家玉 Duan Family Jade
About the Item
This exceptional jadeite jade bangle is one of the legendary Duan Family Jades (段家玉), originating from a remarkable 150kg jadeite boulder discovered around 1920 by jade merchant Duan Shengcai in Yunnan's Qiluo Village. This piece represents an extraordinary piece of Chinese jade history, being one of approximately 400 pairs crafted between 1920-1930 from this unique boulder during the Republican period.
The bangle exhibits the distinctive characteristics of authentic Duan Family Jade: exceptional transparency reminiscent of glass, with mesmerizing blue-green "floating flowers" (飘花) that appear to drift like aquatic plants in clear water. These patterns shift and dance with changing light, creating an almost three-dimensional effect. The stone's unique composition results in a slightly higher density than typical jadeite and superior hardness, making it extraordinarily rare and valuable for both collectors and researchers.
This bangle measures:
Left:
- Outer Diameter: 7.8cm
- Inner Diameter: 5.7cm
- Thickness: 11.37mm
- Weight: 68.96g
Right:
- Outer Diameter: 7.9cm
- Inner Diameter: 5.7cm
- Thickness: 10.97mm
- Weight: 69.09g
The historical significance of Duan Family Jade cannot be overstated - the finest pair was notably acquired by Madame Soong Mei-ling, while most pieces were distributed internationally during the Republican period, with very few remaining in China. This piece represents not just fine jadeite jewelry, but a tangible connection to a fascinating chapter in Chinese jade history, when a discarded boulder revealed one of the most remarkable discoveries in jade connoisseurship.
The bangle's pristine condition and historical provenance make it an exceptional acquisition for serious collectors of important Chinese jades. Each bangle comes with certification confirming its natural, untreated status (Type A jadeite).
