"Double dragon" jade plaque, Qing dynasty

Yellow jade 黃玉 (Huáng yù) from Hetian in the form of a plate carved on both sides. It changes from inside to outside with caramel-coloured spots on the surface.

In very good condition. It represents the ‘雙龍太極’ (Double dragon Tai Chi) which according to Taoist ideology is a concept of duality that refers to opposite but complementary fundamental forces. Qing Dynasty (1644-1912) or later.
