Antique 19thC Chinese Embroidered Silk Sleeve/Cuff Band Framed
Item History & Price
Antique 19thC. Chinese Silk Cuff, Excellent Condition
This is a beautifully well-preserved piece of Chinese silk cuff, dating to the mid to late 19th century. It is made with gold thread and decorated with exquisitely embroidered panels of plants, people and landscapes with dark coloured trim.
Measuring 10” long by 2” wide (in the frame, 11.5” by 5.5”), it is in very good condition. There is some fading to the red parts of the design, and pulls to ...the delicate gold thread but very little sign of any other wear and tear – the modern wooden glass-fronted frame is also in good condition, and is ready to hang on a wall. This piece was collected by a British merchant navy captain in China in the late 19th century, from whose family I bought it.
This piece is unconditionally guaranteed to be of the time and date specified, and comes with a full money-back guarantee - please see my Ebay shop for more S.E. Asian, Indian, and Islamic antiques and antiquities.

About me
I have collected glass and ceramics, antiques and antiquities for many years, and my shop philosophy is to sell very good antiques at very low prices very quickly so I do not need to carry much stock; larger shops will charge much more, but take much longer than I do to make a sale. Each to their own, then - but that makes my prices ultra-low compared to a bricks-and-mortar antiques shop.
I try to describe everything I sell as honestly as possible, including any damage, issues, or attributions to a maker, in my descriptions. If you have any questions, a problem with a piece you’ve bought, or even further info on a piece I’m selling (always welcome!) please mail me. Please don’t ever leave negative or neutral feedback without speaking to me – we can always come to a solution.
