This is a beautiful pair of green Baoding balls with cloisonné-style enamel birds and red and cream blossoms. Both balls give a lovely chime as they roll. They come in a blue patterned fabric case with red lining and a gold-tone clasp.
Approx. Size: Balls approximately 2" in diameter each; case approximately 5" long. Please see the measurement photos.
Baoding balls are traditionally used in pairs. The two spheres are rotated around each other in one palm, and the movement takes more finger coordination than their simple shape suggests.
CONDITION: The balls display beautifully, with light surface wear, and both chimes work. The blue fabric case has noticeable fading, especially on top, and a few worn spots. See photos for details.
