About the Item

This large exquisite A-grade jadeite seal presents a masterful carving of a scaly dragon, rendered in a delicate shade of pale lavender. The dragon, a symbol of power, strength, and good luck, is intricately carved atop a square boulder, adding a touch of regal elegance to the piece. A unique feature of this seal is the water flowing out of the dragon's mouth, a detail that adds dynamism and a sense of movement to the carving. The jadeite itself is A-grade, offering a semi-translucent texture and a lustrous finish that highlights the craftsmanship involved. The seal is perfectly complemented by a matching hardwood stand, which elevates this jadeite and makes it even more collectible. Modern, 20th Century

This vintage Chinese seal is an exquisite example of craftsmanship, intricately carved to feature a Pixiu, the legendary son of the dragon, perched majestically atop a square mound.
