Item details and appraisal notes
A Chinese bridal headdress can contain many flower plaques, pins, clips, pendants, chains and soldered junctions under a pure-gold claim. The complete arrangement should be mapped before any piece is detached, because wires, hair fittings, pearls or stones may not share the same material.
Bridal gold headdress: construction, fineness and weight
| Feature | What to establish |
|---|---|
| Object type | headdress |
| Structure to photograph | Pins, clips, flower plaques, pendants and each soldered junction. |
| Measurements and weight | Overall span, number of detachable pieces and individual weights. |
| Separate components | Hair clips, wire, cords, pearls or stones must be identified before any non-gold deduction. |
| Purity boundary | Pure-gold wording does not establish numerical fineness for every component. Each detachable element needs its own mark, test and weight before its mass is counted as gold; hair fittings, wire, cords, pearls and stones remain separate. |
Inspecting the bridal gold headdress without alteration
Construction and joins: Photograph the headdress complete from front, back, both sides and above, then number pins, clips, plaques, pendants and every visible junction. Show bent supports, broken solder and missing elements without trying to restore the arrangement.
Dimensions and scale: Record overall span, depth, the count of detachable pieces and individual weights where separation is already intended and safe. Keep one assembly weight only as a gross reference with all components declared.
Separate materials: Identify hair clips, wire, cords, pearls, stones and backing plates only when present. Do not pull an element from solder or subtract a guessed non-gold weight from the complete headdress.
Support the headdress across its full span
Place the headdress on a padded form that does not strain pins or pendants. Do not hang it from one comb, polish delicate plaques or detach soldered parts for weighing.
Mapping a multi-part bridal headdress
| Area | What the object should show |
|---|---|
| Main framework | Show how bands, combs, pins and clips support the design. Use side views for bends, cracks and later reinforcement without applying pressure. |
| Flower plaques and pendants | Number repeating elements and pair each front with its reverse, hallmark, join and weight. A missing piece should stay missing rather than being borrowed from another set. |
| Mixed materials | Photograph pearls, stones, cords, wire and hair fittings at their attachment points. Keep their composition conditional until direct examination supports it. |

Questions before an appraisal
What should you check before selling?
What matters depends on the item. Photograph both sides, the edge, hallmarks or base marks, and any damage. Include the original box, certificate or weight information where relevant so we can decide whether an in-person inspection is needed.
