About This Piece
Seated Guanyin occupies a rectangular plaque connected to a long white carved chain. The links are gathered around the base in the front views, while the illuminated reverse reveals warmer areas within the stone.
Carving details and what to examine
The carved chain should be examined link by link as well as together with the plaque. Close views of the link interiors and joining points help assess the finish; a photograph of the whole assembly is needed to understand how it hangs without putting strain on the connections.
Material and stated origin
This plaque with carved chain is listed as white nephrite and depicts Guanyin. Its stated origin is Xinjiang, China; the geographic attribution is separate from mineral identification. The supplied description notes mottled brown skin. This is a description of appearance, not confirmation of treatment status.
