Fine saddle ornaments were used by members of the court and they came in various materials such as lacquer or gilt copper and silver, often inlaid with gems, mother-of-pearl or jade. The presented example is a fine demonstration of seventeenth century cloisonné enamel works. Another set, dated to mid Qing dynasty, with different motifs can be found in the collection of the Palace Museum in Shenyang (see Armaments and Military Provisions in The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum, The Commercial Press, Hong Kong, 2008, p. 83.).
