Description:
This vase is carved of jasper, and the green surface embodies black ferrous specks. The jade is nephrite mined in Lumalasi of the northern Tianshan region. The flattened vessel is rectangular in shape, and it is divided laterally in the waist as though two vases are joined together. Three bands of banana leaves and ruyi patterns adorn the rim. The two sides of the waist are divided into four units, each of which contains a low relief of a serpentine dragon modeled after the decorative motifs on Shang and Zhou bronzes. A dragon and a phoenix serve as handles on the two sides. The base renders a reclining auspicious animal that support the vase. These are popular auspicious patterns in the Qing Dynasty.
