拍品专文

The present pendant is a rare example of the finest jade carvings from this period. The double-s-shaped body of the dragon shows an unusually strong modulation and a high degree of curvature, imbuing the mythical animal with a sense of movemnet and vivacity. The finely incised pattern on the body of the dragon comprising ruyi-scrolls, comma spirals, triangles, and other shapes filled with criss-cross design, further distinguishing the present pendant from other contemporary examples.
