Description

  • Jade
each finely carved with rounded sides rising from a short spreading foot to an everted rim, the stone of very pale celadon-white tone

Condition

With the exception of a tiny chip to the rim of one dish due to a natural vein in the stone, a very light 2cm scratch to the interior of the other and very light rubbing to the interior of both dishes, these are in very good condition. Please note that the stone is of a slightly more celadon tone than illustrated in the catalogue.
