China's Empress Dowager Cixi was a ruler whose taste for luxury remains legendary to this day. When she died in 1908, her vault held 3,000 ebony boxes just for her ''everyday jewels.'' Inspired by Cixi's collection, this hinged bangle features double-sided cloisonné enamel reminiscent of delicate stained glass. Blue peonies accented with cultured freshwater Biwa pearls decorate the outside, while red blooms peek out from the inner surface. 24-karat gold vermeil. 1''W.
