(Connoisseur-Caliber) Offering the beloved Bakshaish medallion on an open-field style, this breathtaking, lovingly restored representative embodies the indomitable spirit of a perpetually inventive and experimental mountain people. The stepped hexagonal centerpiece in antique ivory adorns a richly textured cinnabar expanse, capped above and below with pendants reminiscent of onion domes separated by unique double-banded curling flourishes. The innermost spindle-shaped medallion takes on the rich shade of ebony wood within which resides a cluster of cloud forms representing the celestial dragon’s energy--a concept adopted from the spirituality of the ancient Far East. Each lustrous sapphire zone contains further dragon elements and ripples with deft abrash striations eliciting an aquatic effect. A singularly stylized pattern of grand rosettes, oak leaves, and abacus-like strands ornament the soothing border.
