描述

  • JADE
of almost circular section, the domed plaque rendered in openwork with a soaring dragon chasing a globular pearl and a chilong clambering downwards, all amidst curling foliate scrolls and three lotus blooms, the stone of a pale celadon-white colour with white inclusions

Condition

The plaque is in overall good condition with expected minor nick to the extremities of the fragile carving, including the tips of the tendrils and petals. A section of approx. 2 by 3 cm has been polished at the 2 o'clock position. There are also shallow chips to the underside of the plaque's border, the largest measuring approx. 2 cm. The catalogue illustration is a tinge redder than the actual colour of the stone.
