This roundel had probably been previously embroidered onto a surcoat, such those in navy blue worn by the imperial court during important rituals or ceremonies during the Qing dynasty (1644-1911). According to the <i>Huangchao Liqi Tushi</i> (Illustrations of Imperial Ritual Paraphernalia), only the Emperor and his consorts (including the Empress), and the Crown Prince, would have worn roundels bearing front-facing dragons. Although it is certain that this roundel would not have adorned the emperor's surcoat (the <i>gunfu</i>), as it is missing the requisite <i>shou</i> character, and solar and lunar symbols, it is not easy to say if this roundel came from the robe of the Crown Prince or the Consorts. Rank badge, blue silk satin with coloured silk and gold thread embroidery, China, Qing dynasty, possibly 1736 - 1820 Roundel, probably intended for a robe, embroidered in coloured silks and couched gold thread on a blue silk satin ground. The central feature is a facing 5-clawed dragon which is principally executed in couched gold thread. Beneath the dragon appear <i>ruyi</i> clouds in various colours, auspicious bats, stylised rocks and waves, Buddhist swastika and longevity peaches. The remainder of the ground is embroidered with the 8 Daoist Emblems: the basket of fruit, gourd vase and crutch, flute, sword, lotus, fan, bamboo tube and rods, and the castanets.
