Mandarin Squares: Mandarins and Their Insignia Hardcover - 1991
by Valery M. Garrett
First line
FROM very early times China had been subjected to attacks from neighboring invaders.
From the rear cover
Madarin squares, or badges of rank as they are more correctly termed, are one of the main emblems left from the ruling Manchu government of China's Qing dynasty (1644-1911). They appear from time to time in antique shops and auction sales around the world, and have become prized collector's items. This book provides an introduction to these fascinating pieces of embroidery, placing them in their historical context.
