Crouching tiger with curled tail - White opaque jade with red-brown glaze, calcification, pitting and cracks.
- Decoration in thread relief consists of interconnected lines and hooks with nibs on the ends of some lines.
- Behind the eyes (small dots in relief) is a rectangular thing - perhaps upright ears?
- Three shield-like reliefs decorate the back, while double chevrons lie on each side of the tail.
- This is a solid, almost ugly little carving in the round.
- 7.71 x 2.41 x 1.45 cm.Â
