Disk 10

Disc with two dragon heads
  • Light green translucent jade with suffusion and surface wear.
  • Disk is quite thick in the middle, central hole small.
  • Rope pattern worked with great uniformity; center medallion has raised 'C' scrolls.
  • Curve of dragon neck complements the rope pattern - almost feels like a Catherine wheel throwing off sparks.
  • Decoration on neck is very fine incised lines, also worn through age and handling. 
  • Late Zhou style. 
  • 11 x 6.05 x 1.41 cm.
