Their rank and authority were expressed through the possession of luxurious objects, which surrounded them in sumptuous palaces and accompanied them into the afterlife as part of the grave goods placed within their monumental tombs.The snake became a favored theme, particularly in the art of the southern State of Chu, among the wide range of motifs and styles represented in these sumptuous jade implements. Its elongated body lent itself to the creation of regular, interlaced patterns, often enhanced through openwork techniques, as magnificently exemplified by the present lot. Such designs became ubiquitous on belt hooks, sword fittings, and a wide variety of pendants.
