Hetian white jade plaque ‘Pair of Mandarin Ducks’, Qing dynasty
Beautiful white jade plaque from Hetian with a smooth, even and moist appearance. It has a rectangular profile and a thin, trimmed rim. On both sides, detailed scenes are arranged in subtle relief, framed by a beautiful frame adorned with archaic motifs in the upper area. One of the scenes shows a beautiful pond filled with blooming lotuses and large water lilies, where two mandarin ducks ‘鴛鴦’ swim together as a symbol of union, eternal love and happiness. The other side shows, as if continuing the scene, a more agitated sea, with a sailing ship plying its waters and a garden in the background, surrounding a building of traditional Chinese architecture.
With a custom-made box. Qing Dynasty (1644 - 1912)
Size: 8.2 x 0.93 x 5.2 cm
