Every bangle features the classic solid round fortune shape with uniform inner diameter of 7.3 centimeters. The stone carries high icy transparency, naturally integrated four premium jadeite tones: vivid imperial green, fiery scarlet red, honey amber yellow, and lavender violet. Each shade gradients fluidly across the polished band with rich, watery luster and soft smooth rounded edges for comfortable wear. Every single bangle features unique color layering, creating a harmonious vibrant palette when displayed as a full set. The matching circular storage box is constructed with black patterned silk base, decorated with dimensional gold couching embroidery paired with scarlet silk floss thread. The top surface showcases a dragon chasing pearl paired with a phoenix in harmonious union, surrounded by rolling cloud motifs filling negative space. Centered vertically, golden thread forms the formal script inscription Da Qing Qian Long Nian Zhi, meaning Made in the Qianlong Reign of the Great Qing Dynasty. Dual-layer woven brocade trims the outer rim of the box, demonstrating elaborate traditional embroidery craftsmanship reserved for palace jewelry storage during the Qing era. Single antique jadeite bangles are widely circulated, but intact five-piece multi-color icy sets preserved with their original period embroidered storage boxes are extremely rare. The jadeite bangles hold wearable, ornamental and investment value, while the embroidered case fully preserves 18th century imperial textile techniques, decorative aesthetics and official reign marking. The two components complement each other perfectly as a unified collection, ideal for specialized antique gemstone jewelry archives and permanent art gallery exhibition, delivering dual research significance covering both ancient jade gemology and traditional Chinese textile embroidery.
