The reverse with finely incised branches. The neatly polished and highly translucent jade is of an even white color.Provenance: From a private collection in the United Kingdom. Condition: Very good condition with minor wear, the stone with a natural fissure, two of the rubies possibly replaced, few tiny nicks.Weight: 20 g Dimensions: Length 5.4 cmA Haldili is a pendant amulet traditionally worn to calm involuntary palpitations of the heart. These ornaments are typically decorated with a linear, highly conventionalized tree-of-life motif, symmetrically branching across the surface. The inlaid gemstones evoke fruit or blossoms, reinforcing the life-giving symbolism of the design. The reverse may remain plain. This can suggest intended use by a Hindu wearer; alternatively, if made for a Muslim patron, it may indicate that the piece was never inscribed, as Islamic examples were often personalized with invocations or Qur'anic verses.The jade for these amulets was traditionally mined in Turkistan, prepared in Jaipur, and inlaid in Delhi by means of the Kundan process. For a full description of Haldili ornamentation, see Traditional Jewelry of India, by Oppi Untracht, pages 116-119.Literature comparison: Compare a related bell-shaped jade plaque with gem inlays, dated 18th to 19th century, in the Collection of the Victoria & Albert Museum, accession number 684-1874.Auction result comparison:Type: Closely related Auction: Bonhams London, 24 April 2012, lot 226 Estimate: GBP 8,000 or approx.
