Divine Chinese Jade vase adorned with cupped lid and finial arrangement. Voluptuous cavity drifts upward into a slender neck eventually meeting the elliptic lid. Mirrored textured-handles are appended on either side of the neck. Suspended free rings hang around each holder. Intricately incised design traverses the outer surface seamlessly, to create a precise beauty. Nephrite has mottled appearance with scattered inclusions along with a beautiful transparent milk-white tone.
Note:
Jade, as a stone, has five virtues. Its glossiness and warmth is like benevolence. Because inside and outside is the same, so that knowing the outside one knows the inside, this may be likened to righteousness. Its far-reaching sound (when struck) may be heard from afar, like wisdom. It is not easily bent, but can be broken, which may be likened to courage. Jade can be sharpened, but not to the point where it can injure people; this quality is like self-regulation or restraint.
