Mask

Jun 1 2024

A mask shaped like a slightly rounded, oval human face, carved from light green jade with milky white splotches. The exquisite transparency of the jade and the facial expression reflect the uniqueness and significance of this piece, suggesting it was an exceptional sculpture in its time. An attachment eyelet is located at the top, with the eyes represented as large, slightly raised circles, the nose as an elongated trapezoid, and the mouth as a short slit. The upper back of the head is adorned with 27 thick, irregular schematic lines representing hair, enhancing its distinctiveness.
