About This Piece
A matched pair of arched landscape plaques is shown together from both faces. Delicate scenes occupy the fronts and separate vertical inscriptions decorate the backs.
Carving details and what to examine
The lettering adds a second kind of detail to the carving. Look for clear separation between strokes and ask for a straight-on close-up if the wording matters to you. An inscription can be decorative or literary; it is not, by itself, evidence of the maker or the date.
Material and stated origin
This plaque pair is listed as white nephrite and depicts Noble Aspirations. Its stated origin is Xinjiang, China; the geographic attribution is separate from mineral identification.
