Chinese rank badges are valuable historical artifacts and serve as exquisite works of art. They document the complex hierarchical social structure of imperial China during the Qing dynasty. 

The badge's central motif, a crane, holds important symbolism in Chinese culture. Representing longevity, wisdom, and fidelity, the crane's depiction on this badge likely denotes its wearer possessed either high civilian or military status.

You'll receive a heavyweight, giclée, acid-free print that's created to last for generations. The museum-quality paper works perfectly with large, full-color images. The lightly-textured, matte finish captures fine lines and subtle colors, resulting in stunning works of art (without unwanted reflections). We've preserved elements of this art's ancient qualities in order to retain its richness and uniqueness.
