This large plaque is carved with an archer’s ring-form pendant in the centre, flanked by abstract phoenixes on the top and bottom, resulting in a horizontal shape resembling a huang. Two jade plaques of similar huang-shape but of less complex design, dating to the late Western Han dynasty, were unearthed in a tomb in Ganquan, Yangzhou city, illustrated in Zhongguo yuqi quanji, vol. 4, Shijiazhuang, 1993, pls. 198 and 199.
