About This Piece
Wang Xizhi and geese are placed beneath an architectural border on an oval plaque. The other face carries a branching composition, allowing two distinct scenes to be compared on the same rounded form.
Carving details and what to examine
The framing is part of the composition, so examine its relationship to the central motif as well as the motif itself. Edge and angled views help show whether the border is raised, recessed or simply outlined, and make the transitions into the main surface easier to assess.
Material and stated origin
This plaque is listed as pale greenish-white nephrite and depicts Wang Xizhi and His Geese. Its stated origin is Xinjiang, China; the geographic attribution is separate from mineral identification.
