Yinglong · Above the River

Wings cross the sky; rain meets the rivers. Yinglong · Above the River uses indigo-blue colored brass and fine warm-brass lines, with shallow relief enclosed by a thin round rim. Yinglong glides low along the upper rim and lowers its head toward the river at right, its wings swept back with its body. Two water lines pass between shallow stones below. Feather details, scale lines and a sparse setting continue the collection’s shared visual language. The reverse retains two river lines at lower left and one shallow stone at upper right. Black wrapping, ivory diamond windows and plain warm-brass fittings bring the primary face and simpler reverse together.
