About This Piece
An arched window scene fills the decorated face of this rounded rectangular plaque. The plain back and backlit view contrast with the fine architectural lines of the front.
Carving details and what to examine
The quieter reverse gives a useful comparison with the worked face. View the front, back and edge together to see how the relief meets the outline and how the polish changes across the surfaces. A smooth-looking back in a photograph does not establish that the stone is free of internal features.
Material and stated origin
This plaque is listed as white nephrite and depicts Thoughts of Spring. Its stated origin is Xinjiang, China; the geographic attribution is separate from mineral identification. The supplied description notes jujube-red skin. This is a description of appearance, not confirmation of treatment status.
