Sheep head with curled horns - Green opaque jade converted to cream in areas with orange suffusion.
- Carved from the solid with massive roped horns that curl towards the front.
- Calcification evident in the horns and other recesses.
- Bottom is recessed about 1cm. This took a lot of effort to achieve - what purpose?
- This gentle-looking carving is very appealing but quite massive. Was it a paperweight?
- 16 x 13.5 x 5.75Â cm; 1.09 kg.
