Description:
The red sandalwood stand is depressed in the middle to hold the jade inlay. The jade is greenish white with visible yellow spots. The jade's surface is embossed with dotted protuberances, a pattern that resembles a mat. One of the ends is embossed with a beast face. This jade is originally an ornament attached to a sword. Those parts that were used to attach to the sword were cut off; thus the jade has resulted in the shape of a rectangle. The red sandalwood stand is decorated with a silver filigreed pattern on the surface. The pattern is a legendary animal which resembles a dragon. On the sides, the center is decorated with another silver filigreed pattern that forms the character, shou, which means longevity. On the two sides of the character, the pattern of the legendary animal recurs, but made of oyster shall. On the back of the piece, there is an inscription made of silver filigree attributing to a connoisseur in the Ming period.
