A WHITE JADE OPENWORK 'TWIN PARROTS' PLAQUE

The oval plaque is delicately carved in openwork with two parrots on a perch, and from each of their feet dangles a thin meandering rope. The border is carved as a string of beads, each bead with a slightly concave reverse. The jade is of an even pale tone.
