Qing Dynasty period. The white jade worked and reticulated in the form of a circular roundel enclosing the four characters chang yi zisun ('to benefit future generations forever') in the four cardinal directions, decorated with a pair of phoenix flanking the chang character, above a pair of mythical beasts flanking the yi character, the upper crest carved with a pair of confronting phoenix beneath a ruyi-cloud.
清代乾隆時期,內廷各處依皇帝所好注重仿古,借鑒和仿制古代工藝品的造型和紋飾,其中玉佩大部分是仿照漢代玉佩制作,並且加以變化,在裝飾、造型上較漢代玉佩更加覆雜精致。本品以上等和田玉雕成,玉質潔白細膩,溫雅純凈。片狀,呈圓形出廓,上部鏤雕雙夔龍,面面相對,頭頂雲紋。下部圓形鏤雕雙夔鳳紋及篆書“長宜子孫”四字。運用圓雕、鏤雕、透雕、線刻等技法雕制而成,做工精致,細膩潤澤,紋樣精美,具有典型宮廷造辦處風格,且有清代宮廷仿古繁縟奢華之風格,是工料完美的典範之作,彌足珍貴。“長宜子孫”寓意後世子孫都能過上美好安逸的生活,此類主題的佩玉在乾嘉兩朝宮廷玉器中有多種表現形式,應當為皇帝禦賜諸皇子皇孫之用。配紅木盒。
