Chinese Finely Carved A-Grade Lavender Jadeite Dragon Seal on Stand Modern 20c

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

  • Large Chinese Natural Translucent Untreated Jadeite Flower Cat Birds Carving 20c
    Located in Richmond, CA
    This modern Chinese sculpture, standing at an impressive 10 inches on its stand, is a masterful representation of contemporary jadeite craftsmanship, particularly from the renowned Suzhou tradition. Carved from natural, untreated jadeite, the sculpture presents a captivating scene of a blooming flower, complete with two small birds perched atop and a preying feline lurking beneath the intricately carved canopy of leaves and petals. The jadeite material selected for this piece is of exceptional quality, exhibiting a pale celadon green hue that is both translucent and rich in lustre, reminiscent of the finest examples of jadeite. The translucency of the material enhances the sculpture's visual appeal, allowing light to filter through and illuminate the delicate details of the carving, while the wet lustre finish adds a sense of depth and vibrancy to the piece. The scene depicted is one of natural harmony and beauty, yet it is imbued with the dynamic tension of the natural world, as evidenced by the presence of the preying feline. This juxtaposition adds a layer of narrative depth to the sculpture, making it not just a decorative item but a work of art that tells a story. Crafted with the fine modern techniques of Suzhou jadeite craftsmanship, this sculpture is a testament to the skill and artistry of contemporary jade carvers, who continue to uphold the rich traditions of Chinese jade carving...
