【藏品簡介】：我國對金銀器的認識和利用時間較晚。大約在商代開始有金器，銀器則始于春秋時期，這比地中海和南美地區晚了近兩千年。我國金銀礦產資源相對貧乏，所以對于古人來說，金銀首先是財富的象征，是一種奢侈品。另外，我國高度發達的青銅器、玉器、漆器和陶瓷工藝也大大限制了金銀藝術的表現領域和力度。這也導致銀飾品稀少，銀飾品是指用銀打造出來的簪、釵、戒指、項鏈、手鐲、百寶鎖、等一系列可隨身戴、掛的飾品。
[introduction to collection]: China's understanding and utilization of gold and silver ware are relatively late. About the Shang Dynasty began to have gold, silver began in the spring and Autumn period, which is nearly two thousand years later than the Mediterranean and South America. China's gold and silver mineral resources are relatively poor, so for the ancients, gold and silver is the first symbol of wealth, is a luxury. In addition, China's highly developed bronze, jade, lacquerware and ceramic crafts also greatly limit the scope and strength of gold and silver art. This also leads to the scarcity of silver ornaments. Silver ornaments refer to a series of ornaments made of silver, such as hairpins, hairpins, rings, necklaces, bracelets, Baibao locks, etc.
相對于銀飾的稀少，像這種獨特寓意，跟造型的就更是少見，這件銀掛墜寓意求子，求福，中國的傳統觀念里“不孝有三，無后為大。”使得中國古代對求子習俗頗為重視，求子習俗，顧名思義就向神佛菩薩祈禱、實行結印等儀式的民俗。按照中國古代中原地區求子風俗，分為三種：結印求子、風水求子、祈福求子。本藏品正是有著求子的寓意，所以更是稀少，難得一見。
Compared with the scarcity of silver ornaments, the unique implication like this one is even rarer. This silver pendant means seeking for children and happiness. In the traditional Chinese concept, "there are three ways to be unfilial, and no one is more important." In ancient China, the custom of praying for a son was attached great importance. As the name suggests, the custom of praying to God, Buddha and Bodhisattva and practicing the ceremony of seal. According to the custom of seeking children in the Central Plains in ancient China, it can be divided into three kinds: seeking children by seal, seeking children by geomantic omen and praying for children. This collection has the moral of seeking children, so it is rare to see.
