Jade Boy and Dog Pendant Ming period - circa 14th to 17th century AD collected in 1971 SOLD Finely crafted pale green jade boy figure / pendant with padded clothing. Figure holds a spherical object in front, and a lotus stem behind his back. A double stem leads to a large lotus lily pad high on his shoulders, and a double leaf lotus bud "topknot". This may indicate divinity or divine protection over the figure. Loops for a lanyard are formed through the topknot. Boy is accompanied by a playful dog at his feet. Lovely rounded, full bodied style. Nice detail. Natural amber color in jade matrix is cleverly integrated into lily pad design. |
