清 清白玉鏤雕羅漢乘槎

well carved with the luohan seated inside a hollowed-out tree, a gnarled branch over its head, its legs crossed and hands in namaskaramudra, the stone of a creamy pale celadon with some russet inclusions

There is a minute chip that looks like a knot on the overhanging branch. There are some stained fissures overall. Compared to the catalogue image, the piece has a green tinge.
