Massive Gui style tablet blade with dragon complex and script - Opaque green jade heavily calcified and eroded.
- Four dragon heads are visible in the animal complex; their intertwining bodies also form beast faces.
- Archaic script on the back (presumably back!)Â with a decorative border.
- The decorative work is all in low relief - it stands out nicely after the cleaning.
-  Age is uncertain - it would be nice to believe it's old (ie. Zhou style), but most likely it is Qing. A recent listing by Skylink Corp of a similar jade listed a probable Qing origin.
- Â 36.5 x 10.61 x 1.36 cm. - 1.126 kg.
