About This Piece
A meditating Buddha is placed within a niche on a tapering plaque. Golden skin remains around the lower part of the scene, contrasting with the pale seated figure.
Carving details and what to examine
The small figure details are useful points for a closer inspection: follow the visible contours rather than judging the work only from the overall silhouette. A gently rotated view helps reveal how the face, clothing or head ornament joins the surrounding surface.
Material and stated origin
This plaque is listed as white nephrite and depicts Zen in the Quiet Mountains. Its stated origin is Xinjiang, China; the geographic attribution is separate from mineral identification. The supplied description notes golden-speckled skin. This is a description of appearance, not confirmation of treatment status.
