Subject:Chinese lavender jade pendant.
Posted By: Pyx Tue, Feb 04, 2025 IP: 49.224.120.159

I recently acquired this, what I believe to be, a lavender jade pendant.
Unusually for me, the naive archaistic style appealed.
I am interested in opinions pertaining to the period, style, and the staining around the eyes etcetera.

This particular carving is dirty. clean it with a toothbrush and warm water. It does not have to be your own toothbrush.

Thank-you for the advice Ernest.
Do you think the encrustation may be the residue of intentional highlighting with a material such as cinnabar.

Usually we see it where the dealers "age" items.
For prices,bring it to an antique shop
