Belt clasp, purchase provenance; materials and form: belt clasp/belt buckle depicting lizards and dragon iconography; culture: Chinese, Qing dynasty 1644–1911, 19th century, China; dimensions: height 6.5 cm, width 1.8 cm., A small carved object rests on a flat surface, shaped with flowing, curved forms and rounded protrusions. The object appears smooth and translucent with areas of warmer, rusty brown and cream tones blending into pale white and light gray. Its silhouette suggests an elongated body with a thicker rounded section toward one end and a curled, sculpted detail at the other. The surface shows subtle variations in opacity and mottled patches of color, and a soft shadow falls beneath it on the white-gray background.
