About This Piece
Two rectangular plaques carry complementary dragon-and-phoenix ornament around densely dotted fields. The detail photographs show pierced crest sections and the small repeated circles across the faces.
Carving details and what to examine
Openwork creates actual openings through the jade, so the surrounding bridges are part of the structure as well as the design. Look at both faces and the inside edges under changing light to assess the finish and check for damage around these narrow connections.

This plaque pair is listed as white nephrite and depicts Dragon and Phoenix Blessing. Its stated origin is Xinjiang, China; the geographic attribution is separate from mineral identification.
