Dragon and Phoenix

Sep 1 2024

This pendant features a unique combination of two phoenixes and one dragon, crafted from mossy green jade with a slight whitening effect. The jade is translucent and shiny, highlighting the intricate details of the sculpture. The design includes a phoenix on the left, a dragon at the upper right, and another phoenix at the bottom right. The phoenixes are characterized by their beaks and round eyes, while the dragon is distinguished by its elongated snout and tuft extensions. Although jade sculptures depicting phoenixes and dragons are occasionally found in Hongshan culture, this particular example is rare and features only a few similar forms.
