About This Piece
Birds and a curving branch climb a narrow rectangular plaque. Raised borders and a small lower emblem contain the otherwise open, delicately carved composition.
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 white nephrite and depicts Double Happiness. Its stated origin is Xinjiang, China; the geographic attribution is separate from mineral identification.
